Velbon V80 Special Tripod

Hi
Sorry I haven't psoted for a while, and haven't posted, but I need your help again in finding out some info regarding a piece of kit I inherited. This time I have got this rather gorgeous and fantastic Tripod called a Velbon V80 Special. It is silver with metallic grey and is very sleek, with no plastic whatsoever which I might be right in saying could suggest high quality as plastic breaks easier than aluminium. However, this could also be because of it's age, but it seems new to me, although it is not listed on the Velbon website. If anyone knows when this was made/released, how much it is worth or any other relevant info pelase let me know, thank you!
I hope to be posting on here more regularly in the future, me and Artemis are finding our Photography course ahrd but still really fun.
