I was the losing bidder on the xsurf.  I didn't care that much since I already have an ariadne, but I was surprised how cheap it went for.

I just noticed that the winner of the Picasso IV (for $87.40), has a Picasso IV for sale for $499.  I don't know if it is the same one, but it looks like that buyer bids on what he can to resell for a much higher price.

Ebay hides the username of buyers, but in a small community of people interested in Amiga hardware, one there can't be that many people with 1121 reviews bidding on tons of amiga stuff:

Nothing technically unethical, but kind of :furious:.
