Flat out smoking crack....I have one of these generators, Paid $40 for it. Performed some much needed maintenance, new plug, etc. And it runs like a champ. They are grossly under powered by today's standards, It can run a few basics, LED lights, or LED TV, a drill, things like that, but it will not even run a halogen work light for example. Even if the thing was like new you'd be hard pressed to get someone to pay $100 for it. His Ebay sales pitch is the typical what people are asking vs. what they sell for, no one in the history of Ebay has ever paid $1700 for one, I guarantee it. For $800 you can easily come by a newer Honda with 2, 3 even 4 times the power with the cleaner inverters for today's electronics. I would certainly not plug a router or laptop into these old units. They are cool little vintage units to be sure, but $50 would be my top dollar on a good day.
