I think I know where a T55 is for $9,000. It has been sitting for maybe 10 years. It was offered to me in 2002 for the $9,000 then. No idea what he would want for it now but it is still there.
Ran when parked?

That's funny, I don't think it's quite that simple. But you never know. I agree, the guy could work on his spelling.

$85k (reserve not met) opening bid and in a short description he says "way to much to list". Pretty poor salesmanship IMO.
