he has a A600 for a reasonable price, so probably is a typo.

"Original Box and Packaging - may be a bit tatty due to being held in storage"

I spending 1k + I would expect better than tatty

"This could possibly be one of the last units to roll off the production line, being sticker dated 8/7/97??"

How true is this?  I am too lazy to google it.

Man at a super inflated price, Im more surprised that the worded RARE wasn't even used!!

That price commands even a UBER RARE title!

Aren't there a fee for posting stuff on ebay, based on starting bid? At some point, you'd think it'd become a waste of money to post something that fails to get even a single bid.

I've "bought" things on ebay before, never paid, and left the person negative feedback just to teach them a lesson...

although, it wasn't $2000 worth... xD
