It seems that someone told the seller his PDP-11/34 didn't have CPU
cards. The seller ended the auction and relisted, this time with a
bullet point saying "Sorry there are no CPU cards".

Yes, I told him. This looks like a case where his expectations seem to be outrunning
reality; I'd be amazed if he achieves even his (as-yet unknown) reserve.
Incidentally, the guy never did reply to my email; he just changed the bullet point
as you mention.

There was another seller that had a listing for what he
thought was a Twiggy diskette for the Lisa 1. The photograph showed
a Verbatim Twiggy sleeve but a standard 5-1/4" diskette. I sent him
an email pointing out his error and he was quite thankful for the
info. He removed the auction and sent me the sleeve!
