Re: Unbelievable Auctions

["mr. brad" <mrbradremove@ll.net>]

not sure but a while back i looked at a couple auctions and one of them said 
the guy was in calf but his former name was something.jp. had a japan email 
as a prev name

i wonder if some of these really big bids are japanese equiv companies like 
'japanese typevintage micros' and are buying what collectors want and then 
shipping them to japan....the prices we have been seeing are ..believe it or 
not uncommon to japan collectors and a vulcan hd would be mucho rare in 
japan


maybe the collecting is getting more overseas influence..i heard that in 
some south asian countries an apple II keeps its value more ...also heard 
that about australia apple ii's

anyway....what do i know but that is what i've seen in the past ...i have 
not checked on the recent auctions...

anyway....my 2c worth but basically i'm also confused about the price 
upsurge
