Or he wants to bypass eBay's fees and conduct a private sale to the
highest bidder.

We'll see if he re-lists the item or not. Maybe I'm too much the cynic!

However it didn't meet the reserve. Does anybody know who the high
bidder
(TSSWEEN) is? The seller must be nuts! Or else he just wants a new
Mercades!

$11,099.99 was less than the reserve? What on EARTH was the reserve???
Also, who has that kind of money for a hobby - knowing that it will
require
tremendous effort to bring the system back to life?

It seems to me that the seller either wasn't serious about selling - or
is
quite greedy (the latter, I think).
