They can ask whatever they like, just like the used book dealers have started
to do on anything remotely obscure looking through bookfinder.com. I just
spend more time now looking at non-ebay sources if I want something.
I wanted to pick up a couple of Archive 2060S drives (working) and they are
all listed there at well over $100. I found one well under that from a drive
broker with a warranty for less than someone on ebay wanted for a capstan.
