Okay, so who won the VIC-1020?!

I was bidding on it earlier, then saw Lief (Schema) with the high bid up until 1 minute from the end. Then another buyer got it at $46. Was it you, Mayhem?

Nope, not me. What an unusual bidding name...

I was tempted to go higher, but just couldn't justify it for a metal box. It wasn't a full 1020, just the case and some other cartridge slot expander. Mind you, the expanders themselves can go pretty high too

Yes, same with me. As much as I've always wanted a 1020, this one was just a metal box with a third party slot expander thrown in. Still, I was sorely tempted. If I handn't spent so much on Commodore stuff recently, I probably would have made a high bid. I'm surprised more of these 1020s don't show up in Toronto, as that was where C- had its file cabinet making branch (they did the original folded metal PET cases too).

It would've been even more unusual if the bidder was mayhemsniper or something like that.
