...wow.



Noooo, that not right. Is that the x-surf I sold you? Prices should go up not down, but I'm not a financial expert.

I would recommend you never be allowed to start auctions on ebay ever again! :hammer:

Hence one reason I still love EBay. Someone got the fastest Zorro network card ever made for $0.99. :-D (No, it wasn't me.)

Oh, these weren't my auctions, I just stumbled across the seller as he has a 4000T listed currently.

So why didn't his auction show up for me when I was searching for "Cyberstorm 060" EVERY FLAMING DAY for the last two months?

It also appears he chose to ship to US only.  I'm sure that didn't help anyone.

Holy cow, I hope he wasn't hoping for a big payday.
On the other hand all are marked no warranty no return and came from the same 4000. Maybe the box took a power surge?

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.
