I thought that too, plus I wondered what the original text of the auction
actually said with regard to the state of the machine and whether the seller
knew it was a prop or not. If it simply said 'Exidy Sorcerer in good
condition' I'd maybe have emailed asking for a picture rather than just bid
on it outright. More often than not I don't look at auctions that don't
include pictures anyway.
