    Blizzard 1230 MKIV voting gone mad

    There is currently a Blizzard 1230 MKIV for sale on ebay here.

    It still has 4 days to go on the auction but already 11 bids have been made and the price is up to £155. Is there something I don't know? I wonder what the final price is going to end up at?

    If you haven't played a classic game in years, it's never too late to start!

    So much for the credit crunch. Then if you look here no one has made a bid for a Blizzard 1260. Mind you that's because the guy selling it has given it a crap title that no one knows what it is. A few do now though.

    This Blizzard 1230 MKIV is continuing to shoot up. It is now up to £180 with 12 bids and still just under 4 days to go.

    Are we missing something these bidders know?

    I've just looked at the auction and he doesn't even know if it works or what size RAM comes with it. People are mad. I think the people who are bidding on it are going to end up doing a banker when the auction ends due to the price. (Doing a banker is my slang for throwing yourself off a great height which is what a lot of bankers have been doing recently.)

    That's off it's head.
    I have kept hold of one just in case.
    I can guarantee it works and have a 128meg simm with it.

    Should auction if off for that type of cash.

    The final score for the two auctions.

    Blizzard 1230IV unknown if working and how much RAM £180.00
    Blizzard 1260 working with 32MB RAM £165.00

    That shows what can be done if you list something properly and also that there are still bargains out there.
