I think we should give this guy his very own wet dream. I will bid one
MILLION dollars for it (left small finger in mouth), and someone else
can bid a few buck less. That should be a good laugh for him.

"He's Back!"

 It looks like the same fellow with a new name. That'd
be my guess. Who was it that contacted eBay last time?
Maybe he should drop them another note.
 As a side question, weren't most of the front panels
for the Mark-8's home made. In which case you couldn't
use someone else's photo.
