Subject: The Commodore 65
Zero feedback doesn't say anything about the trustworthiness of the
buyer other than it was worth registering to buy the item. Disparaging a
zero feedback user is like disparaging a newborn baby for crimes they
haven't committed yet.

Ok...anyone know who dropped the big 20 kilobux
on this one?

Not saying it's not worth it (I've certainly never seen a working one,
ever,) but the price is still a shock. Big $ for an Apple 1 I can
see...there are collectors of "cultural icons" like the original Apple
product outside of our hobby. I can't see the same being so for a
Commodore relic.

Won by a 0 feedback buyer, good luck getting $20K from them.
I never seen an Apple I being that big of a deal other then to people
who collect Apple, the C65 is the same for Commodore collectors. There
will always be collectors shelling out serious cash for the unusable
rarities while other collectors pay trivial amounts for the common
machines that actually have some software and hardware available.
