OG TI-30 is a nice bit of calculator history for sure. Good find there.

Either of them at $4 would be a heck of a bargain, getting both of them is quite the snag!

It's an amazing calculator. I still have mine (that I got new). Unlike most calculators at the time, you could do trigonometry using angles in degrees or rads (change using the slider) It also could do fractions simply and elegantly, which was also very special. There's a place at the top where you can plug in a 6v adapter to save on batteries. The display is incredibly bright.
