Nice. Would be better to see the bottoms. The AE 80 appears to be a very early one with the small metal plungers. The Yellow WE appears to be soft plastic with Grey cords! Or are they Gray cords??

...I guess...

Don't worry, soft yellow 500s are turning up on ebay pretty often lately. I'm sure you'll find one soon!

I wonder if our old friend "Mr. Helpful" contacted the seller about what they had, so consequently they pulled it.

I sent an email asking if the phones would be relisted. The seller replied:

"Hello
My Co - Worker will be relisting them, his Ebay name is IbuyIsellItrade, watch his page for more info..."


I wonder what that means, what's behind this and how they will reappear.
