That one seems nice, albeit without the vinyl carrying case or power
adapter.  Price seems fair, and it’s got 32KB RAM as well as the mystery
ROM - extra nice if it were the SuperROM, assuming keyboard works well.

A few people have commented on the apparent rise of prices for vintage
computing equipment.  Perhaps demand really has gone up and people realize
that these machines are becoming increasingly rare in good working order,
but some prices do seem exorbitant.  Of course, a high-priced sale sets a
new bar, but it seems like prices revert on average to more reasonable
levels, thankfully.  For example, I love my Tandy / Radio Shack machines
and NEC, but I also like others, and I felt particularly lucky to have
found an upgraded and perfectly working early Macintosh SE recently for
about $75, when so many non-working, untested, or questionable ones are
being marketed for much more...  Every now and then a similar thing happens
with our beloved Mxxx’s, and someone gets a good deal.  :)

Best wishes,
Anthony
