DECtape madness

[Noel Chiappa]

So why are reels of DECtape selling for unbelievable prices on eBait? See,
e.g. here:

and here:

I can't believe there are hordes of TU55/TU56 owners out there who desperately
need media; so what is it? People who think DECtapes were super cool and have
to have a reel, even though they don't have a drive? Or are there actually
TU55/TU56 owners (remember, it takes two bidders to put the price up) who
really need media?

Anyway, it looks like this person:

who got four for the 'bargain' price of $80 got a 'deal'!
