but not cheap

http://cgi.ebay.fr/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250311544117

After sending this guy an email with some rather normal questions,
like memory amount and if the battery is removed etc., he answered he
didn't know.....

He offered to ask the previous owner. I than asked him to send me some
screen pics. He wrote that the system was in storage and that he would
set it up next day and shoot some pictures.

That was 20 oct. It was the last mail I received.
Yesterday I asked if he forgot about me.... He never answered.

Seems to be not very reliable this guy.

In the feedback from eBay, one person claimed this guy tried to pay
with a stolen creditcard.

I would really think twice before buying this unit and sending this
guy money.........

I'm sure I won't take the risk.........

Cheers,

Peter.

That's interesting, because there was another auction

Now, if you look at the questions and answers section you find similar
inconsistencies.
He claims that the PowerPC card in in this machine - but the Mac on top of
it doesn't look like one with PCI slots (the PowerPC card goes into the Mac
itself)...

Yes, I asked if it had the Power PC card, and he said
yes. Don't believe it till i see it, so im swinging
over there tomorrow to check the system.

This is in the style of Brian Georges "Mini Synclavs".
One polybin sharing RAM and voicecards, no FM, no
multi. 
If it has the power PC this would be an ok price, if
not, then it's way overpriced.

cheers!
