Now why didn't I think of that!  I should have done the same.

The seller must either be playing a game (doubtful) or simply got confused by my
subterfuge.  :-)  His answer about the 1-8 and A-H is backwards.

Isn't the labeling on the 8 move keys also backwards on the CC1, ie 1A, 2B, etc.
instead of A1, B1, etc. on the later versions?  If I squinted (CPA eyes) I could
just make out on a couple of the keys that they were number first.  When I got
the answer from the seller about the labeling of the coordinates, it really
confused me.
