If this was still functional for me, assuming the AC adapter, that has apparently given up the ghost since I've had it, is the culprit, I probably wouldn't have ever listed it in the first place. Or at the very least, doubled the price, as you surmise. Did you ever see the clear-plastic-cased engineer's prototype Color Classic that went for $5000 on eBay a few years ago? Apparently there were only 5 or 6 of them made that way in order to check inside clearances the easy way before the full production release. Talk about rare...
