Can I ask what makes this thing worth $300 plus $250 in shipping?

It's easily worth $300, but $250 in shipping is absurd.

Remember that eBay is doing the shipping calculation for the
seller, who is in Canada. It's going to pop up with an
absurdly high value, especially if customs enters into it.
For me (in Philadelphia), it comes up as $300, which seems
odd given that I'm probably closer to Southern Ontario than
Cindy is in Texas.

Sadly, shipping from Canada is absurd. I got a free PET 2001 board
from a cbm-hackers list member c. 2005, and the
shipping was $35, over
$10/lb from Toronto to Ohio. :-/

Rarity and the combination of weight and distance, respectively.
I don't actually know what RX02s normally sell for, but the only
other ones on eBay at the moment are listed for a lot more than
$300 (though they cost less to ship to the US, because they're
not in Canada).

I have several of these beasts.
I do go back to when they were current equipment.
The price asked for an RX02 in unknown condition is well over the top.
The shipping price may not be far off as they weigh a ton!!

I just looked at other DEC Qbus boards for sale. There were a
number by newsgroups (in Canada) in addition to the RX02 which
is also in Canada, actually quite close to me.
Has anyone ever purchased anything (or at least had any contact)
with newsgroups? Any idea if there is an e-mail address or a
phone number?
