You can view auctions using different domains:
http://www.ebay.de/itm/200822262265
http://www.ebay.com/itm/200822262265
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/200822262265
It is the language and sometimes the search results that differ. Its
rather murky what you can see and/or bid on IMHO.
Cheers,

I really just mentioned it in case people were thinking it was in the
UK. Getting that to the UK would cost a mess of money.
Is there anything around about the design work at DEC ? I would love to
hear the story about the red, white, and blue design of this box. Did
they design it after a wild 4th of July BBQ? It looks so different.

I'm sure that someone is doing it from time ago, but as a
documentation effort (and ever that it wouldn't suppose a legal
problem), I would suggest to keep the photos of items like this one
which appear in eBay from time to time.
This PDP8 is an example.

FWIW, I have an 8/f with the Industrial-8 faceplate, but the original
8/e/f/m switch paddles. I purchased the 8/f on eBay and the seller
claimed that while someone was cleaning the faceplate, he wiped off all
the printing. In addition to what I paid for the machine, I had to find
another faceplate. What was available at the time was the Industrial-8,
and I find I like it. I just wish I could find matching switch paddles
for less than a second mortgage. :-) -- Ian
PS: if I'd known he was going to 'clean' it, I'd have told him, don't
touch it, just send it. Of course, it ended up on my doorstep in a liquor
box with a bit of crumpled newspaper around it. Some people just
shouldn't be allowed anywhere near vintage hardware. (Yes, I gave him
negative feedback - especially since it also took seven weeks of nagging
to get him to ship it. He's no longer on eBay under that name.)

I have an F or M with the complete industrial front panel. I might
have extra red and blue switches still boxed away. I might be able to
trade/sell you a regular one. I'm still tring to get caught up, but
next surgery is Nov 1st.

It is interesting if you
go to the UK URL for ebay and list the vendor.
When you select the "show other auctions" you get some auction for
tubing, and not this one.
If you navigate to the auction via making a US URL, you get, I think 8
auctions total. I guess the tubing is listed for UK sale. I don't know
why a search in the UK would pick this up if you can't see the auction
in his "other sales" button.
Wish I had a buck or two, I'd give it a shot.
