Yeah it’s amazing, this is exactly what those sellers do also, 
when you want to get a price from them on how much they want for these things, which is absolutely ridiculous.

The model is an MST-80B Microcomputer trainer.

In a custom attaché case with power supply and breadboard.
It has a ceramic 8080 processor on it.
And of course support chips, some of them also are ceramic.

Documentation is by Gordon D. Jones

Thanks
