I think you have to go back at least 20 years to find an ST on eBay sell for £5

Someone was selling a Mega ST keyboard on eBay this week. Buy it now £5.99 each and he had more than 100 of them for sale... then I realised it was per key!

Weirdly, I was actually thinking that, apart from a few over optimistic or crazy people, the prices of retro stuff was levelling off or even dropping slightly

That's the cheapest F030 I've seen for a long time. You even get it boxed and with a monitor plus a Steinberg cart. Jeez! :roll:

@sporniket Did you try for it? :)
