You know the golden rule - If it looks too good to be true etc etc
The fan guards look a little odd on the one that still has the zip ties.

It's probably fine. I can see this being an R&D department at a school or tech college being shut down / shuttled in some manner, the machines (and lots of other things) sold off to a local reseller. The pictures are good and clean, and the person who did know anything about it probably just dropped it off and collected their check

They look OK to me -- tools, etc. are there. However, I would INSIST that they restore the missing chocolates.

Chuckle! Yeah, about the missing chocolates........Meant to mention that it might be time to switch to a free rock candy now......I got a free "puddle of chocolate" with my last order. (Not knocking it, it was
incredibly tasty, but it did need to be pre-chilled prior to consumption.)

I predict it will be a good deal for someone who wants two M2s. Let us know if the other one really is broken. I bet it was just some school where a student told the teacher they could not get it working. I would like another printer, but $1000 per printer where one is claimed to not work has too much risk to be a slam dunk considering that I don't really need it.
I just sold a $2150 scope on eBay and it went for my entry price of $1500 NIB, so there are deals to be had when there are not multiple-bidders.
