cheapest SDS-3 in modern history?

cheapest SDS-3 in modern history?

2012-04-09 by jesper

The seller had blocked any bidding from outside the UK, was only
shipping to the UK and had blocked any questions... That, plus the fact
that there apparently weren't any english fans ready to go into a bid
war must've made someone really, really happy. I hope that someone is
here or finds his or her way here... it only made me frustrated. :S

I hear you, Jesper. I found out about the 'UK bidders only' thing after having my bid rejected with 5 seconds remaining. Total bummer. Would've gone for way, way more had he opened it up to international bidding.

I kept thinking: "bid morons, bid!" because it hurt to see it cost 195
pounds even with minutes to go...

Well, anyone here with a UK friend that was ready to bid? I toyed with
the idea of having a pal bidding, but couldn't imagine it going this cheap.

Sure, Jesper. None of us could have thought that the SDS III finalized at that incredible price
