Guys,
As I recall the folks from CMR International sell these, new, as nice "repro" units for not a lot of money.
Maybe this enterprising fellow just adds the "aging process" to fool folks thinking they are buying a rare old piece and to separate them from their hard earned cash.
Just a WAG on my part...
Regards,
