    So who is going to place the first bid? ;)

    Could only imagine what he bought it for in the early 90s!

    Probably not much. No bids yet, though.

    Bought it for Ebay because he could foresee the future? ;-)

    Imagine you could that, buying Commodore 65, Commodore MAX and other rare prototypes. Then waiting until the nostalgia wave kicks in some 15 to 20
    years later and put them on auction. One at a time when cash is needed.

    Beenie Baby collectors would like a word with you. Although not a
    particularly -happy- word...

    Cheers,

    I'm sure whoever buys it will donate it to the 8-Bit Guy, he will do a 14 minute video on it and put it in his attic.
