HP-67 for $760 Message #1 Posted by Nick on 14 Aug 2003, 10:30 p.m. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3039688962&category=11713 This HP 67 is going for $760, and it has 22 hours to go still. And the battery won't hold a charge. Yikes, I definetely need to sell mine now.

The 67 is so fun to use, and you'll have trouble finding a comparable quality calculator anywhere. I only recently bought a 67 (finally!) that needed some serious keyboard repair, but it could be done quite easily. Honestly, I can't believe that this price is really gonna be paid. You would be crazy... Cheers, Victor

Re: HP-67 for $760 Message #4 Posted by David Smith on 20 Aug 2003, 3:32 p.m., in response to message #3 by Gary If it was bid rigging, then the guy with the (0) feedback probably would not have wound up with the final bid. But then, I have noticed that when a person with a reputation for bidding way above prevailing market values is around (JOE_OIL, THERWIL, JONCONALI, etc) that (0) bidders seem to pop up and drive the bids even higher. It is very rare that they actually get stuck with the high bid. I don't know how often they actually pay for it.
