Sadly it has a original ti manual binder and a navarone cartridge expander so it might double in price just for those two items. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I put in a low ball offer of $30 and the seller accepted the offer. So now I have one coming, of course with eBay forcing international shipping to Canada no matter what the seller says, as eBay takes the package from the seller in Chicago and then reboxes and ships it out, and our crappy loonies, the total came to $59 CAD. At least still affordable compared to many previous offerings of these devices. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary from OPA Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 (edited) 4 minutes ago, OLD CS1 said: Wait, what? When did this start? A while ago. It's to make it easier for usa eBay sellers that don't want to deal with customs and documents. They just mail to the central eBay hub in Chicago, which of course in this case was free shipping. And then eBay looks at the parcel, opens it up, fills out the paperwork, seals it back up, and then ships it out by some weird courier for the final trip. And the cost of that can be very high no matter how small the item. Plus it can sit at the eBay hub for over a week or two until there enough parcels going your way on the truck to the border. Which when finally occurs you get a tracking number and in really rare cases a partial refund on shipping fees if their automatic calculations were wrong. That's why I try to only deal with Canadian eBay sellers or ones from UK at most. Edited July 31 by Gary from OPA 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly have not made any eBay sales in a while, let alone to Canada. eBay's policies and fees have pushed me too far, so now I just sell through the AtariAge marketplace. If this truly is forced upon sellers, it would be yet another reason why I will not sell on eBay. And that Fast and Free thing? Back when it was first introduced, eBay pushed it hard but did not tell us that we ate the shipping cost! It cost me money to sell some items with the F&F program. I was pissed. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary from OPA Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 Yet another ti99 super sketch has appeared for sale on eBay this one from a Canadian eBay'er. Strange over the last few weeks there been at least one super sketch appearing and selling. The flood of sketching is happening, now where is everyone uploading the pictures they have sketched in it making YouTube videos of using it. At this rate maybe I should put mine on eBay if they keep selling like hotcakes recently. https://www.ebay.ca/itm/145928888133 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only one that has not yet is the one for just under $700 usd, but it's a sealed unused unit. All the open box used ones have been selling between $175 to $300, crazy times, strange how eBay goes in waves with multiple similar items selling over a couple of weeks. Last month it was ti99 original flex cable interface cards by themselves, they just started appearing and selling no matter the price, even ones that were laying around for months never selling got bought up fast. This month it's super sketch, I wonder what will be next month. Strange world of eBay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
