Indeed. Here is what the seller emailed to me:

    "You wouldn't be able to see anything but the flooring for the computer
    which is stacked on the tail end of the trailer. Everything else is so
    tall you would not be able to tell anything about it. If your wondering
    what the environment is like that it has been kept in, I can tell you
    that. It HAS NOT been kept in a temperature controlled area, it is just
    like the description said, a semi-trailer. If I can answer any questions
    do not hesitate to email, but I am looking for serious bidders."

It sounds like a recon mission wouldn't tell us much. I don't have $1200 to
spend on getting a peek at it. With the crazy money he wants and all of the
extra stipulations, I'll bet this gets scrapped. At least there were
pictures available for download. ;-(

So close, yet so far away...
