Was that a "buy it now" sale? I can't imagine that didn't go higher if it was a regular auction. That phone is amazing. I need to watch Ebay more.

Not BIN--one bid 27 hours before auction end.

I wonder why that phone didn't come up on any of my searches.  Totally missed it.  Nice phone - would like to have added it to my collection.
