Well, I expected it to go higher. But realistically, how much could it be worth. $500 seems about right to me (for someone who just *had* to have a new A2000) without any artificial bidding.
Pretty funny, a new 64C + disk drive sold for over $300 recently, while a day before the EXACT same thing went for $40. It's freakin' obvious what's going on with some of these auctions. It's even worse with cars. I've seen sub-$5000 Benzes sell for $20K. (Yeah right, who's going to pay $20K for a 240D??)
Then I take it you missed the $3000+ Atari 1400XL computer that sold!!!
I did. I generally don't check out Atari stuff that often. (Though I did happen to wander across a few memorable Apple II auctions last year.)
