AustinYes, I was wondering what the resale value was - seems high to me, but then JOBO is no longer making this and as the auctioneer said, this may be a good investment with film processing getting harder to find.
I've a big darkroom sink w/temp control valve to keep chemistry warm and the usual array of drums and roller agitators. Of course I've got to be there to keep an eye on the clock, pour, dump, etc. But, then I am not a pro. You liked yours, was the $2,000 worth it?

Hi Rob,Wow! They certainly have maintained their resale value! I paid $2000 for a used one in mint condition, with a few more accessories (two water heaters, and more reels/tanks, battery back-up) about a decade ago. There is noother unit really like the 1500 (or the 1000) for film processing. So much for film being dead... ;-) Regards, Austin-----Original Message----- From: rollei_list-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:rollei_list-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Robert Lilley Sent: Sunday, March 01, 2009 9:19 PM To: rollei_list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [rollei_list] Re: Sort of OT: Jobo ATL-1500 listing...

There is, what appears to be, a nice and complete ATL-1500 on eBay closing in about 8 hours from now: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320343972948 I have an ATL-1500, and find it to be exceptional. With all the accessories, it may end up being a very good buy for someone.
