Re: LOST Season 2 - an Apple II/II+ inside the "bunker"!

[classic-videogames@mail.com]

Even funnier is the message I got today in response to an eBay auction
I'm running for a II Plus:

"From: "eBay Member: ***" <member@ebay.com>
 To: classic...@***
 Subject:    Question for item #8798557294 - Apple II Plus computer -
low serial number Apple II+
 Date:    Apr 20, 2006 3:28 PM

I am interested in purchasing this item for the TV show LOST,
however, I would need it to ship right away. Are you willing to do a
buy it now for the item? $100.00 to purchase and if you could bill
shipping to my FedEx or DHL account that would also be great.
Please advise how to move forward."
