Just about every hiking site I've been to has people soliciting to buy used SVEA/Otimus 123's. As an FYi, if you have one of these in decent shape they are selling for from 60 to 120 dollars on Ebay. Considering that I paid about $45 for mine in 1977, that's not bad.

PS: I rebuilt mine this weekend & it was not easy. I bought a kit from the outfit in California (who shall remain nameless) and none of the parts fit especiaaly well. OK, so none of them fit, at all. The kit is most likely not NIB OEM stuff, as it appears to be Chinese or lesser quality. After a great deal of struggle I got my stove back together & functioning again sans new parts.
