You can get 1.0 and 1.5 systems on ebay, but there is some risk and the prices are amazingly high (80-95% of retail). There is not that much difference between the 1.0 and 1.5 kits, and I recommend the latest release, because half of it is a (...) (24 years ago, 18-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.market.shopping)
