Go up one level in this thread


In keeping with this dyslexic theme ..
some computers that are not considered very rare or even rare at all seem to
never appear on Ebay or are offered privately

consider if you will the.. Fidelity Little Chesster
this little baby was  offered as a free gift by some retailers if you purchased
other more expensive chess computers

or the Applied Concepts Walnut Boris Master
soon after the Walnut Boris appeared in all of the Major Department stores here
in the US ,the Master was released and sold in its place
customers didnt even know the difference when they bought them ,as the stores
made no special mention of the "Master " version and continued to advertise them
and sell them as the normal Boris

i dont these two computers ever appearing on Ebay for if so ..very rarely

but i guess i would have to elect the Mephisto Magellan modules as the most Rare
..Common computer

so Rare that even i do not have this common module and i cant recall an Ebay
auction for one in the past year

Medium Rare Regards
Steve
