Ok, Steve,
I will give you $150 for it.  Should I send the money order immediately?  :-)

To be honest, I did want to bid on it, but knew that you would want it more than
I would.  It isn't that I didn't want to bid against a friend.  I am sorta in
the same camp as you - you say that you would bid against your mother, if you
wanted something badly enough.  However, I knew that you would bid higher than I
would, and so just didn't want to run you up any.

My interest is still there, but more for the newer and fancier computers, that I
don't already have.  There haven't been many of these recently, at least not in
auctions in the US.  I never have been one for spending large amounts of money
on variations, even rare ones that this appears to be.  I already have two
CC3's, one with a nice "red sticker" box.  If I had a collection even 1/10 as
complete as yours, then that would be a different story.

I still search eBay several times a day for any bargains.

Ebb And Flow Regards,

Dick Schneiders
