That $700 for two 500s and other items seemed like a good deal. They still go for $300. Though I haven't checked in a while.

Untested A500's usually go for about $50 each.
 
Here's one example from a winning auction today:

Am sure I could dig up many more.  If they're tested, or expanded, then it's a whole other ballgame, LOL.  ;)

Isn't he breaking copyright laws then? Report him to Ebay, and Cloanto :)

This has to be because of the chicken lips model right? Or because they are NTSC? 50$ for an untested A500 is more than for a working one here...

I wonder if the 2 500's would have sold for more if they would have mentioned the "chicken lip" factor :)

Not sure, I see untested non chicken lip models go for $50 and over here.

Was the chicken lips case only for the very first rev.3 A500s?
I have a chicken lips keyboard and the rev.3 motherboard that it came with, but unfortunately not the case..

I'm so annoyed when I read through old threads like this with links to ebay auctions long gone... Could posters include a screenshot in attachments for the future please? :hat:

Now... How about this:

So why is the 8th 1,075 pounds? It's not stupid bidding, it's a Buy it Now price.
