That's a shame as I have one of those things gathering dust on a shelf. I may have been temped to let it go for $8000. :-D

Post by: mingle on July 16, 2007, 12:50:59 PM: I wouldn't even pay half that for a fully working A3500 prototype!

Is someone gonna tell him? Wonder what the eBay BIN fee was?!? :crazy:

Post by: bobamu on July 16, 2007, 03:28:48 PM: I was given one of those, tho it seems to be broken, I guess that means the one I have is only worth £2000 :crazy:

1220/4 that is :)

Post by: Kronos on July 16, 2007, 03:54:12 PM: Well look at his other auctions, reasonable BIN-prices I would say. So a typo is the most likely option here.

Post by: bobamu on July 16, 2007, 04:19:09 PM: no doubt someone has told him it's got a crazy value in by now, still it'll help more people see his auction no doubt :)

Post by: B00tDisk on July 16, 2007, 04:20:13 PM: What? That's perfectly reasonable! That's a mil-spec, gold-and-ceramic certified german engineered uberproduct! :-D
Title: Re: so blizzard for $8,000 you say?
Post by: bobamu on July 16, 2007, 05:25:11 PM: but it's for a 1200!

it can't be mil spec! only approved 2000's can be milspec!

:D
