seller thinks it's made of gold..
This is the same guy in NY that always overprices everything and puts
the same boiler plate on all his listings "This piece of history will
display well in your vintage computer collection.".
In addition to the guy having high prices, even for ebay, he doesn't
properly pack items for shipment so they arrive damaged. I bought a
rare terminal from him and it arrived as smashed piles of plastic. He
clearly used an insufficient box for the weight, looks like he just
grabbed any old box from behind a supermarket, and there wasn't enough
padding to protect the terminal. He refunded some of my money, but
still it was bad enough that I won't ever buy from him again unless
the price is reasonable (hardly ever) and the item can't be damaged by
his poor packing jobs.
