I still think you can get a decent TE1 for about £50.00. The only models that go higher are rare limited edition and the very early 1963 versions with the gold sign writing.

The trick is just to keep looking. Loads were made and new ones come up on eBay every day, even earlier models.

If you see one you fancy, either post a pic on the forum or send someone you trust a pm. They will soon tell you if it's the right model and price.

I'm with you, I love the TE, in all its styles. I've got a fair few, all different and am still looking to fill in the gaps in my collection.

Welcome to the forum - here is a quick guide for you, hope it helps.

As Manx says, there are loads and loads of TE1s on Ebay, they come up every week, so just wait and you will get a 1965 -1967 for around £50 to £75 depending on the condition.
