I know many of us here have built things that are "nicer" than this or are swimming in mics, but this is actually a very good all-purpose thing, it's very low noise for the output level, and it's solidly built, plus it's not too expensive if you need to stick it in front of something dangerous like certain singers I've met.
I'm asking $259 plus actual shipping, which is a little better than the lowest price I could find for the combo in good condition on ebay. They're in pretty much prestine condition, never been around any smoke or anything like that, no dents on the grill, and my breath doesn't stink up the joint. The shockmount has only seen a little bit of use.
It looks like a microphone so I didn't bother taking pictures. If you really want some pictures I'll take some.
Want to know what it sounds like? I made an entire frigging album with it as basically the only mic (I used an e609 as a second mic on the guitar amp on a couple tracks), and the results were good enough that I was willing to print it:

And I've used it pretty frequently on acoustic tracks since then.
It's been a second choice for me on a ton of sources, and it's still "the one" for a some things, but I really need to thin the herd.
A large flat rate priority box is $18.85, so plan on that for shipping, but if I can safely send it in a smaller container I will do so.
Trades:
I would accept an empty Aurycle body toward the cost (I only need one to verify one of the open source mic projects I did back in Feb), but I'm back in school now and unless you happen to have the textbooks I need for my classes I can't accept anything else because I'm on play money lockdown.
