I bought a "Non-Working" Amiga 3000T motherboard from him. I have the service manual as well as a working "T".  I needed a project and I thought what the heck.

When I received the board someone had hacked the SMD 68030 and 68882 IC's off destroying many pads and traces in the process.  It never even occured that somebody would sell something like this without disclosing it in the auction such as "Non Working and DAMAGED/NOT REPAIRABLE"  Especially after I plainly asked him ahead of time if there was any battery damage.

Oh Well, Live and Learn. I still pass by his auctions without a look.
