I got mine on an auction site too, but not ebay, a New Zealand based
one called TradeMe. I've picked up lots of old computer and video game
stuff off there, including and Amstrad CPC 464, Apple //c, NES, Atari
2600, and lots of games. I was surprised to get the IIgs so cheaply as
I've seen others sell on the site for many times the price I paid.
