This uses specialized collets. Depending on year - it looks like 1960s model 1A. For model A collets are impossible to get. For model 1A almost impossible to get but you can modify some rare collets to make it work.
I.e. without collets machine is more or less scrap - unless you make your own collets to take something like ER32 or ER25.
This is why the ad says it has collets.
The price of the machine is all over the place - if you can find them. Over 5000 were made.
