It can happen ... I found a DEUNA for $37 last summer including the
interconnecting cables between the two boards :O
Some of it is just getting lucky, some of it is putting the time in just
browsing the categories, being creative with searches. . Definitely not a
regular thing ... but at least a few times a year still, I feel like I made
out good on eBay.
Best,
Sean
