:)) Well, I suspect an autographed board would bring a lot of $$$ at eBay. Hmm,
perhaps I should learn how to write "De Koinig" in a convincing way... ;)

But if you're right, then I probably payed too much for my SB30. ;/ I thought
that mint units are quite rare (at least more than the Rainaissance boards).
Anyway, only future will show us how prices will develop...

SB Regards,
Martin
