The Disappearing WE 302E

[RDPipes]

Just wondering if anyone else seen this disappear mysteriously with a bid of $100 on eBay the other day and have any thoughts as the REAL reason it vanished, I know I do.

It was there this morning.  Maybe he damaged it.  That once happened to me, the cat knocked it off the table.  Sadly, it was not saleable after that.  Forget what got broken.

Mike that would be nice to believe but, sadly I doubt that's what happened.

He might have sold it outside of E-Bay.

He might have sold it outside of E-Bay.

The probability of that being the real reason is 118%.

about the 4 rare "metal" painted D1s and 302s, including topics with phones very similar to this one.

Probably sold this $500+ phone to someone in a side deal for $150. Don't know the real numbers because it didn't go to a natural end on eBay but will guarantee the seller in a moment of telephone market value ignorance left a lot of money on the table.

Buyer got a deal.
