Nah! It is his money! It is destined for him to have it. I have my toys anyways:

xBox 360
PC
PS 2
and Amiga 1200

What else does a man really need :D:D?

I think the buyer probably still is the one with the most money...

I have one of these "NOS" sealed in the box refurbished A1000's. Wanna bet it's not worth $9k?

Prove me wrong. Offer $9k. I dare 'ya!

If anyone's up for a better deal on a 1000, this one's been on my local craigslist for the past few months.  Seller periodically lowers the sale price, $210 now doesn't seem too unreasonable - not that I have time for another project though, LOL!  ;)
