how much did you end up paying for that in the auction?
You're going to hate this:
66 Euros (actually 60 + 6 commission).
That included a keyboard, mouse and monitor.
The diagrams of the other designs were free :-P

There were loads of people at the auction but nobody knew what it was, I very nearly missed it though as I didn't understand what they were saying and it was actually sold! However once I said this they re-held the bidding and I won :-)
That wasn't the best of it though. There was an entire Commodore museum of dozens of machines and it was sold as a job lot for (I think), a couple of hundred euros. There was quite a few brand new machines there including a 1988 A500 and a whole heap of A1200s (several of which were brand new boxed), Then there was an A3000, mint condition CD32, CDTV, PET + disc drives, C64s VIC 20, VC20, CMB 115 a large pile of monitors and a whole heap of other stuff. I also remember a really weird A500 in there somewhere which may have had a prototype casing.
Feel free to swear at them here:

One thing that surprises me to this day is the level of interest in the Walker. Looking at he web stats this thread alone generated 250 unique visitors to the Walker pages!
