Looks like a good deal if you want all that stuff. Looks like it will include a box o' parts that may be useful. Doesn't look like it's been well kept recently but might just be dirty. Thanks for posting, I don't look at FB but interesting to see what's being advertised there.

Model 10E with Speed Changer in Central MA - $100

Saw this one on FB Marketplace. Mislabeled as a Mark 5, but looks to be in good original condition.

It still amazes me that some sellers can't read. All they have to do is read what it says on the tool. In this case the Logo/serial number plate which clearly says Model 10E. I have seen Model 10E and 10ER tools listed as Mark V in ads before. Right now, near me is a craigslist ad for a Mark IV. It is not an actual Mark 4 but is a Mark V. There was a different ad a week ago for a Mark 5 listed as a Mark IV. :confused:

Yes there also appears to be little recognition that a Mark 5 ever existed!

Now reading labels on a Mark VII will definitely add to the confusion.









One label On the motor pan) says "Mark 7".

It's why I always refer to them as the current Mark 7 or the Mark VII from the 1960's.
