Someone's "ebay store" (don't have the link) was on par with this (same
guy?) I'd venture that what he's willing to pay for the stuff he buys is
equally obnoxious (in the other direction). As I have a perfect copy of
StarFlight (it was shrinkwrapped when I got it), I'm curious what he'll
offer for it. One way to find out.
PS - "Perfect" is not based on anyone's rating scale. Its in "really good
shape" if you're touchy.
