Here's two Ebay listings for for the same machine, one $1K, the other $499
In the pictures they both have the same S/N.
The lister only has ten feedback's.
Strange!!!

He raised the starting price.

Doubt he will get even the lower price.

I can only guess that the seller is trying a two prong approach. They are using two different style of Ebay listings. The first link is to an auction style listing while the second link takes you to a fixed price listing with a make an offer option. He can always cancel one or the other if something happens with a listing (not likely). Either way there must be gold in there somewhere to hope for the prices he has them listed at.
