Hi,

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/RARE-VINTAGE-ACORN-BBC-B-32K-COMPUTER-MINT_W0QQitemZ290306846254QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_VintageComputing_RL?hash=item4397a2ee2e&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=65%3A12%7C66%3A2%7C39%3A1%7C72%3A1690%7C240%3A1318%7C301%3A0%


I spotted this seller too, what I can't understand is that his history does
show that he has been succesful in selling equipment like this close to
those prices. I'm sure if I put an auction up with the same details and
machine that it would end up unsold. Does anyone have any ideas how he could
sell at these prices?

These are just the usual machines, not like the retroclinic machines which
have nice upgrades, new batteries, and powersupply caps replaced.

Regards,
Paul
