Go up one level in this thread


If one was to find one of those great looking Mephisto sets, such as Bavaria, in
>Ebay for example, what would be the selling price more or less?

the Bavaria is the board..full piece recognition
depending  which module is in the board ,the price will vary greatly

the board itself(with no module)is worth around $1000-$1500 depending on
condition
back in the 1990's it sold for several thousand dollars brand new
>
>I see the Excelsior, new, is around $700.

the Mephisto Exclusive is the only wooden,auto sensory board that can still be
purchased brand new today

the Magellan/Senator modules are by Frans Morsch and were released in 1998
they are rated about 2075/2175
the chief difference between the two being the Magellan has larger Hash  Ram for
endgame play
>
>And that Magellan module is basically an on purpose limited Fritz 6?

Fritz?
err .. is this a PC prog of some sort?
dont know anything about this
had a friend named Fritz though..back in school
