May I ask why this unit is valued at nearly $1,400 (US)? Clearly it is an
attractive board and set, but for that amount of money, one could fabricate
a general purpose computer, in a very wee package, and a sensory chessboard
and have enough left over to fly to Iceland to watch a chess tournament!

What is so unique about this unusual device?

Why to buy a Rolex watch if a Casio one is even more accurate?
There is other kind of reasons...

because it is so rare and the 4 LEDS for every square , it will be
$2000+ by the time this auction is done...
