Oh yeah, that’s easily way more than 100k

The Philips Integris is a very old machine. Although I'm not an expert, the machine looks identical to the 1989 variant: https://www.philips.com/a-w/about/news/media-library/20190101-Philips-Integris-interventional-system-1989.htm

It's probably useless in any modern country.

That's what I was thinking. Specialized equipment is extremely expensive and I assumed a modern x-ray machine would be 1+mil and figured this one in the image had to be very old if it was so cheap.
