    Im very surprised its reached as much as it has to be honest! Are you the high bidder Rich? I knew I should have just come straight to you before the auction as I know this is right up your street mate

    Nice piece of kit alright :)

    Just wondering how much swearing must have been caused by having those reset keys where they are though, or is there something I'm missing :-o

    Definitely up my street but I fear it's going to exceed my price range comfortably. I wouldn't start bidding until the last minute tbh.

    It may look good I'll agree and the reset is easy, just press both at the same time and its away, my issue is the expansion slot, as reported in reviews at the time, its a bit small! Do-able bit the case gets in the way (nowt a bit of filing wouldn't cure though!)

    I'm not a collector (allthough I have dozens of machines in stock ;) ), but I like the looks of this beauty that much, that I would want to do some last minute bidding too ;)

    A normal rubber model is only a slave compared to this mistress ;)

    Well good luck guys but please do remember what I said in the product description, the tone and volume controls dont seem to do anything and there are no case screws (out of the gazillion screws I have here do you think I could find four correct sized alternatives? Nah, not even close!)

    ;( I'm doubting myself too.

    But let's try to predict the result, just like with the worldcup (been doing that all day because Orange has to play again tonight).

    I say it will exceed 100 quid.

    You definitely made the right decision putting on eBay, I'd have paid ?30 max.

    And I would have been more than happy with that too!

    Rooting for the dutch tonight Ben, hope they go on to lift the cup!
