As we have discussed many times, the prices on ebay are not a
necessarily reliable indicator of value.  But yes, I had to pay that
much to win that auction.

If you auction yours, will it command 350?  I don't know.  I think I'm
about the only person actively *looking* for a beehive terminal.  Just
another demonstration of how, even in a bunch of "odd" people, I will
still be "odder" :-).

I've noticed that when a seller on ebay has quantity 4 of the exact
same item, that when they auction them off one at a time, the first
one tends to command a hefty pricetag, then 2nd not so much, the 3rd
less, and so-on.  So if you only have 1, and there's sufficient
demand, then the price tends to be a little spikey.
