The bidding history on this item now is pretty odd. I already mentioned
that the first bidder seemed unlikely to have much of a real interest
in Apple IIs, now another bidder has shown up who spends all of his/her
time on Ebay buying and selling (mostly selling) little pins, trinkets,
and costume jewelry. The two bidders now have the price at $315 although
there are plenty of similar systems for much, much less - Including a
souped up IIe with Zip Chip currently at $10. There's something weird
going on with this auction.
