Never seen this many views and watchers yet on anything I have listed before:

Views 423
Watchers 31

36 mins left and only at $32

Those watchers are probably just trying to figure out what stuff goes for .. ok, I usually do the same thing if I am trying to sell something :roflmao:

Damn, I would have bid on this, if I had seen it in time.
The first part of summer is traditionally a slump for computer prices - specially the retro stuff. This year seems a little more exaggerated though.

Yeah, definitely expected a bit more than that.

Had a local person here that wanted me to take the auction down and pay twice what it ended up selling for but I guess once a bid is in and a bunch of people are watching the item I wouldn't feel right taken the auction down.

Told him to put in a bid but I guess he changed his mind or was just ticked I didn't end the auction for him :)

Splitting things up definitely seems to be the way to get more money but I'm tired of having too much stuff ;)

Still have gamecube, original xbox consoles, n64, snes, nes and a ton of games for different systems to go through ... only keeping a bit for myself, rest can go.

Damn, I looked at it and I expected to see the price at least double.  Your shipping and handling was fair to send them safely.

Shame.

Yeah, I was watching.  I toyed around on bidding, but I have a couple of rather nice sets of Commodore 64 systems, already, though at that price I would love to give a good home.  But I'm also watching to see when and if any of those 1500 A1200s become publicly available.

I hope it goes/went to a good home.  I once passed on a wonderful trunkful of C64 stuff because a kid we worked with really wanted it.  Turned out he parted it out to a few friends less than a month later.  Was pretty pissed about that.

Pretty sure it went to a dealer, will probably get parted out but hey if that's how they make a living .. think of it this way, it gets parted out and the individual parts end up with people looking for that particular part :)

Oh and the $35 shipping is actual parcel post and the box is filled to the rim, most everything is boxed within the box, didn't need much padding.

Damn! I was going to bid on this. Stupid ebay watch email didn't get sent out. Oh well, it was actually priced right for me to experiment with a C64. Was always an Amiga guy, but getting a copy of Legacy of the Ancients or a few other of the older C64 RPGs would have been fun.
