The most important thing is to buy the latest/greatest model, which is hyped up on social media and fora such as this.
If you want to make sure and impress a high school band director, make certain it's rotary.

At least I'm doing it half right: they're hyped a little bit on social media, but none is newer than 40 years.

To impress me, it needs to have been "worked over" enough by me so that - once I croak - no one else will want it, or - if they might want it - they might not be able to figure out what all that "stuff" is on it.
The way you've described your Symphonie, I think we'd figure out the stuff on that one.
I'm not sure that - with the Miraphone 98 - everyone would immediately figure out that the #3 slide contraption is designed to be pushed in with the player's sleeve-cuff...or (at least, at first) what the "brake" is for on the main slide...
