Good grief!
ebay auction:

Related to this, what is up with this on ebay. It's an Apple
LISA (not even twiggy) at $3500??
Item #: 300196451776
More related than at first glance. Note that the seller in this
auction touts that one just like it sold for $3500. Guess who
bought it. The same bidder that bought the teletype: ryonash.
First $3500 Lisa auction: 230218155818
And, to complete the analysis, ryonash also dropped $4150 on
an altair: 320212329725 in the last week. Looks like a new
speculator on ebay... or just someone with more money than
sense?
OK, this get weirder. The bidder has been around since 2003.
Using the bidder's feedback to go back a little further than
the "search by bidder" allows, ryonash bought:
A couple of decwriters and some mac bits for cheap.
A PDP8 with teletype: 110205856805 $3200
A Mac Se: 200183993762 $150 (a little expensive)
A decwriter: 320185941487 $150 (a little expensive)
Another ASR33: 290185013845 $250 (much more reasonable)
If he/she knows that ttys can be had for $250, why the big bids?
He/she now has three ASR33s and three decwriters, what's he/she
doing, building a historical movie set?
