One more first batch silver screw arrived today, now it's eleven out of thirteen. Missing: PH-1 6500 (not that difficult) and DS-1 7100 (almost impossible).

Serious collecting there!

I have two of the silver screws but alas one has little "wah". I'll have to check those batch numbers.

There are a few DS-1s that do crop up here in Japan though they tend to be pricier for mint silver screw etc of course.

Japan is where I found most of my vintage models, this TW-1 came from there, rare variants and first batches are very difficult to be found outside Japan, and yes the prices are rising very fast, even there.

Yes, my collection grew exponentially after moving out here, the sheer volume of consumers means still plenty about although the trend for collecting/and higher prices has become more apparent. I do browse incessantly, so if you have specific batch codes to hunt I can always keep a watchful eye out for you here.

Thank you very much fuzzbuzzfuzz, I appreciate your offer, but please don't worry, I have a person in Japan that looks for the models and variants that are missing in my collection, and to be honest, I love the hunting, every day I search many e-markets over the net, and as they say: the chase is better than the catch. :lol:

The last rare SD-1 variant just arrived, a JRC4558DX.

I was looking for a SD-1 "DX" for years, this unit is only the 3rd I ever saw, the 1st was too beaten up and the batch number was missing, so I let it pass, the second was almost mint, with box and papers, the seller was asking almost US$ 800.00, no way Jose.

Finally found this one, not in good condition but acceptable.

2 more silver screws that came in the same box today... a SG1 and SP1 from the same batch 8400 both in very good condition. My silver screw family is almost complete. I just miss the SD-1 but this one is gonna be a tough one to get. My complete japan family is also near completion. Still 9 more to get (VB2, DM2, DM3, DC2, BF2B, GE7B, DSD3, DD3, PS2).
