When you got your first c414...

...did you feel like you were holding a star trek communicator in your hand? (Original series, none of this TNG shirt button bullshit)

Oh yeah - it was like LDC all up in my face.
And in stereo at that. For I had purchased a matching pair.

Well lookit you, mister fancypants. :|

I picked up mine for £350 off ebay in need of some amateur maintenance (loose connections to the capsule)

Now which version of the 414 did you purchase?

I just picked up a C414B ULS last Fri, then I saw another TL II for a price I couldn't pass up. So I pick that one up too

Mine's a b-uls. I like through hole soldering.

I got a C414b-xls for $400. It had seen some use, but it came in the original box with everything except the pop filter. It performs flawlessly, and is the anchor mic in my locker. I use it to record our band at rehearsals and gigs.
