I was shocked to find that the eBay seller WASN'T CommodoreUSA!  Don't be fooled; it's not a TRUE Commodore Amiga PC. It's just a cheap knock-off (after all there's no C= logo sticker on the case so it can't be any good) ;)

My friend saw this on Ebay, I thought it was amusing:

I saw these pop up a couple of weeks ago from the same seller at $399 I believe, and something like two or three had already been purchased.  I think Commodore USA's market has just been saturated.

Good job, myvbay!

That's about the price of a current Clone-in-a-Keyboard, but I don't know if anyone is  buying them. And, I've never seen one in the wild.
