On Queen's Day we usually have markets in the cities in our country. I saw these two oscilloscopes, both with a price tag of 7.50 guilders. I would not think of bargaining or negociating with good equipment being offered at this price, but hesitated a second about buying one scope or both. Perhaps the stall holder was afraid I was not going to buy any of it, and told me I could get the two oscilloscopes together for 10 guilders. (In today's money that is 4.54 euros.) The seller was an employee of the University of Utrecht, where the scopes were in use in student laboratories during the nineteen sixties and seventies; he had bought them from the University when they got replaced by more modern equipment. Getting the documentation cost me twice the price of two scopes.
