All in good jest of course...

Found this one today on Ebay:

Besides the pricey starting bid (although I know a few of us would pay top
for something CoCo we may deem as unable to let go), the one thing that
strikes me from some Ebay vendors is the undiscriminating way of the use
RARE... or MINT like on this one.

How about a litlle dust-off before taking the pictures? Poor thing looks
like it was just taken out of storage...

Of calling something as 'mint' when there are obvious problems like a
missing cassette player door... must be the 'optional' bit thrown in there.

Oh well. One more spot on the tiger.
