There was a PDP-8 (rack straight 8 with asr33) that was on ebay that
disappeared..anyone know if it was sold? I can't find it, maybe the seller
pulled the auction to sell privately.

I trolled thru VCF forum and I think this is the one you recall. It's
the last straight 8 I saw listed.

I also off your topic have observed a German listing and British listing
for Olivetti Programma 101s for 40,000 pounds and 60,000 euro, in the
same fantasy range as this listing which is for $18,000.
This listing shows currently terminated September 20 due to an error in
the listing. No relist by this vendor. He also did something on Sept 2
with is.
Thanks

Is there specific evidence it sold? All we know is that the listing was
pulled. I guess no one here bought it

Found out from the owner, it was sold to someone in Europe. I did not ask
for additional details.

The original listing price was $25,000 and was reduced to $18,000 when
there we no bids at the original price.

Notwithstanding I'm in the UK I do have a lot of PDP8/e era boards some
of which I'd like to sell to raise funds to buy items I dont have.
