[Brian Blake]

There were two recent eBay auctions for 512k CoCo 3's.

One ended today with the selling price of $56.15:

The other auction had a BIN price of $199.99 or Best Offer:

Well, I decided to make the guy an offer based off of several recent 
auction results. Back in December I won a 128k CoCo3 for $57.72, and a 
few others had gone for less than $50. Throwing in the results of the 
other 512k CoCo3 auction today, I offered him $56.00, fully expecting 
some sort of a negotiation. Well, the offer was declined and the auction 
removed from eBay... Interesting response...
