Yep, that's the bad stuff -- right in the middle of the sticky days.

I almost spit my Coca-Cola all over my keyboard when I read the following quote from the listing.

"Mention This Auction For 10% Off Your Next Repair Service!!!" :D
 
I liked this bit:...

Toys From The Attic has just purchased the estate of a client who was an avid collector, aficionado and occasional professional in the electronics field. If he liked something it was not uncommon for him to purchase multiple units.
My god! I did not realize I'd died! Is this the Twilight Zone, or something? :eek:
(I can't wait to buy some of my NOS goodies back!)
 
Death has a way of sneaking up on a person.

Reminds me of one of my favorite M*A*S*H episodes… where the G.I. dies but hangs around for a while before he figures it out.

I’m leaving everything to my kids, so hopeful I’ll never see something like this when I’m surfing eBay after I’m dead. :)
