> Sammie, did you bid on anyting this time?

No, I didn't attend this auction. Interesting how high the switchers went...wonder what they cost new 40 years ago compared to what they sold for.

Most auctions carry a 10% bidders premium plus state sales tax...so the UPY 1475 MP15AC cost the buyer at least another 30 grand plus sales tax unless he was from a tax-exempt state such as Oregon.
