He bid on lots of Sol 20s but didn't win them all. The link was to a
bid history, not an "items won" history.
I wouldn't have a problem with someone taking 4 non-functional Sol's and
making one working one out of them, though. They bid, they win, they
can do what they want with their machines. It's better to have 1
working collectable then 4 broken junkers. All I'd hope is that the
remaining could be used to resurrect some other machines in time.

I've corresponded with the gentleman a little. He
seems like a nice
enough guy, if a bit richer than most of us.
He's sucked down nearly every SOL-20 on E-bay for quite awhile. There's
at least 4 of them in the first three pages of his history linked to
previously. I dread the thought of someone turning those four SOLs into
one SOL.

I have been able to win a few items he's been interested in but it has
cost me. He is hard to outbid.

I think it was the earliest serial # Apple II to go on sale (#2000 I
believe). The fact that it had document + in working condition was a
big plus.
I'm not sure I would have paid $3800 though.
Btw - Does anyone know who the guy at ebay user id 'abeclassic' is? I
wish I had his deep pockets...he bids on a lot of things and
definitely
outspends everyone. Some times I wonder if it's
worth bidding on if
he
his even thinking about the same item.

What does that machine do that a 'normal' Apple II doesn't?
