I agree with your assessment on the price. It's a consignment so I may be able to bargain the price down.

If it is an early model, do you think it may have shipped with the wooden box?

So I believe the one you are looking at might be a little bit earlier than you think. Of course, they did not ship in serial order, so S1696xx could have shipped later. But at least that gives you a ballpark date.

Personally, I think the price is a bit high, considering your description of the condition. For that money, I think you can do better.
