Yeah, that's definitely quite cool, assuming live inspection passes the desc.

Working star wars boards + decent yoke + repairable color vector monitor ~= just under the starting bid.  Everything past that is just additional value.

Eh, true, I had remembered it as saying working but it doesn't spell that right out.

Sure it says "working boards". But how many times have you seen a sale that is advertised as being in mint condition and it is actually a POS.

Still, if you know your stuff, have some extra money to restore these, and have a seller lined up you the person who buys this could end up with a good machine funded by selling the other.

That's why I said "if it passes live inspection".  It's a local pickup only item.  Not looking at it before bidding is idiocy.

I drive through Mooresville 2-3 times per week. If someone is really interested, I'll try and go have a look.

Funny enough I emailed him and asked this exact same question (you'd never guess why..) and he said: "Sorry I need to sell it all together. Unless your willing to pay 500.00 for it."

Unless I want a divorce...  I will be sticking with my repro one.

Its probably a good thing its too far for me to go get.  There would be a battle royal suitable for pay-per-view at my house if it was close.  I'll just have to bide my time until this winter.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!

Bid stayed at $760.00 right until the very end and then jumped to US $1,025.00.

Gotta love those bids that are placed by someone that has been registered on Ebay for less than 30 days with zero feedback and this being only their second bid. ::)

Anyone else smell that foul stench of a shill bid?  :censored:
