    Five years ago, a TZ for $3400, about two blocks from where I work. Had to wait for someone to flake on showing up to buy it(I think it was a fellow Pinsider, too ), but the guy was a standup seller and held it for me over the weekend(after I gave him a deposit, of course) until the banks opened so I could get the rest of the cash to him. He had a TOM for the same price, but I wasn't as interested in it at the time. I was so jazzed to be getting a TZ, I didn't think to make an offer for both. The TOM was in amazing shape, too! Oh, well.

    My TZ ended up needing a bit of work, more than I was prepared for and stranger than most had ever seen. But with the help of Pinside and its great detectives, she's been solid for years now. It was my first pin purchase of any kind. A great experience, a great deal, and I still have it to this day.
