I, too, was surprised by how many bits it is in, 34. I plan on following the
sale to see what he does get.
One of the things I noticed about the sale is that the seller is in Ketchikan
Alaska. This is about one of the most expensive places in the US to ship out
of. It could be prohibitive in cost to ship an entire Lisa. Most of the parts
could be shipped priority mail however, at a fixed cost.
>From reading the sellers feedback and reviewing his shipping charges I
suspect his handling charges are a significant part of the additional
charges. The more pieces he sells the better off he is.
I also notice his regular business is concrete and scaffolding. His eBay
sales are a sideline.
