I've got two Syncro Dokas that are just sitting... but you must've misread the for sale sign. It definitely doesn't say $1,500.

Cheers,

in case anyone doesn't know what '20' means......... that means WHERE THE HELL ARE THESE THINGS !!!!?

such an obvious detail. I'm sure the poster left out location info just to bug people.

btw......... I know this Syncro Doka that's just sitting, looks really clean too.......... recent registration, for sale sign on it says $ 1,500 OBO .

Friday joke I'm sure.
