I would recommend that whoever wins that auction specifies that the item be insured and sent registered/tracked mail. I only lost 35 Euros, but I would hate to see somebody lose a couple of hundred Euros because of a postal problem.

"..However, any ram attached to the board isn't recognised, and therefore it is not possible for me to check if the PPC CPU still works either. I have already tried to use ram sticks that is confirmed to work, but to no avail :( Therefore I can only sell this board as defective, but maybe someone with electronics skills can bring the card back to its full potential.."

That's why the price stays low.

Indeed, any confusion could have been better avoided if the seller stated that the board is defective, somewhat earlier in the description...perhaps even in the short item description.
