I don't know much about the 1599. The 7900 68K machines had a DOS.

Another thing that will affect the value here that I don't think has
been pointed out yet: the seller apparently has three of these things
(note his responses to bidder questions.)
And another another thing: they've also been sitting outside for who
knows how many years.
obviously not in this case!

You can offer to take him to small claims court for the item. That
option has worked well for me in the past.
Once you let them know the option of a court case is real they are more
than willing to deal with the contract.
IT's quite clear in the ebay auction terms.

And there's the key to the situation. The seller thought they were going to
get big dineros for it, and not so much.
Which is likely a good part of why they aren't being reasonable in the

You were very nice to try and work with the person; if they couldn't take that

they're being some combinations of greedy and unreasonable.

It was me. Despite the listing being "local pickup only" the

Geography matters ... if you're in the right area, say, near a university
with a historically high computer science impact, or large high-tech
industries ... you can find a lot of equipment for free or very low cost

I told the person that they will get more $$ if they prepare in

There's a Vector MZ for 99 cents right now for the same reason.
