It looks like nobody bought it, even after he listed it again for $100.
FYI, as a former owner of a 5300 (plain 5300, greyscale) and a 1400cs, here is my advice:
Stay away from passive matrix displays (those with the -cs).
They are just too dim. At age 27, I thought I was losing my vision.
Also, if you want a 5300, get the 5300ce...it as an active-matrix 800x600 display, vs. the 640x480 display of the rest of the 5300's.
Other than that...the hinge/bezel problem, the "jumping RAM" I actually liked my 5300!
