Soemtron Calculator Market Trends

Over the years we have seen Soemtron calculators appear for sale in various places, mostly on Ebay, this page lists some we have found and managed to keep a track of.

Some of the more higher values have not met the sellers expectations, as they did not sell or seem to get any interest so there is obviousely a percieved market value that buyers place upon the Soemtron ETRxxx machines in spite of the sellers claims as to the machines "rarity" !.

Spare parts EG keyboard, displays, key switches, pcb's do seem to sell without too much trouble and at a reasonable cost.  Complete ETR's were reasonably priced some years ago (below 100 £/€), with ETR222's commanding higher prices, one in 2008 reaching €145 after a lot of bids, whilst this year (2022) one is prospectively at €399 !. The ETR222 is a rare machine as only 3,200 were made so it might sell, eventually.

For ETR220's, 2022 has seen speculative offers of €444 and €549, these would seem rather optimistic as over 155,000 of these were built, and they do come up in the markets reasonably regularly.

Late in 2021 an 8601a Prüfgerät appeared online offered for around €1000 which apparently did not sell.  It was later offered to the Soemtron website and has now been refurbished to full operation and features here on the website,  see Tester 8601A.
