Subject: Collector's Corner..Second Novag Robot Adversary..

to ever appear on Ebay

no sooner do i list the Robot on my rare list and this appears

sadly however the seller was unable to test the Robot because he did not have
the proper adaptor.therefore he offers it as defective and "as is"
there is no dust cover,manual or original box

the arm seems stuck in an abormal position..there is no type of movement the
Robot would make to place the arm in this position

the bidding list is already filled with a host of well known collector's

bidding is obviously in speculation that the Robot does in fact work or can be
fixed

this will be quite interesting to follw,because the only other time  Novag Robot
appeared(last DEC) it sold for over $4300 and was the sigle highest price ever
paid for a dedicated chess computer on Ebay

lets see what a possibly defective one (totally naked) will rake in:
