English (shortened) translation of the typecast:
When I saw the Hermes 3000 on internet-photos for the first time, I thought that it is a quite ugly typewriter. And I was sure, I never want such a green, strange-shaped thing at my home.
Of course, my opinion changed over the times and when I finally decided that I do want one, a long and frustrating search started. I checked everywhere online and offline, but could not find a Hermes 3000. Not even a battered one with small font. Nothing.
So when this one showed up on German eBay, I knew I would buy it despite it’s ridiculous price of 300 Euros. And so I did.
It’s in a very good shape, types beautifully and is definitely a keeper.
