    wikipedia says its unit cost is 2.4 million dollars, so $650 is a genuine bargain.

    It’s 1986 too so so you’ll get cheap tax.

    How does this free shipping on orders over €100 work on property? Found a nice little place in Monaco...

    540 Litre fuel tank. It gets up to 1.4Km a litre, no wonder it's reduced.

    All payments are by bank transfer, so good luck getting the money back!

    You can return it within 14 days.
    Take it for a few spins, if it doesn’t suit, send it back.

    That's not a bad price but it's worth checking your local helicopter place first, my helicopter guy will usually match online prices and it's easier to return if something happens down the line

    Might get hit with an oversized item charge.

    Hope customs don't notice it.

    Top Tip : check the rotor for oil leaks.

    If there's none just walk away and never look back.

    That looks big enough to sit in while you're flying it ,you wouldn't even need a screen on the controller.

    I'd assumed that was the bargain, that it was down from $741,964.99?

    No, apparently the first price shown was something like £650 (not £650k). Hence the bargain alert. :D
