Wow, nice system. Looks like they got the $2,400 for it! The Hazeltine 1500 alone is a great find.

I see ZERO bids, so nobody was willing to pay the starting $800 bid...

It must have been the buy-it-now. I've never seen an OSI system go over $1,000 before. Most people have no idea what they are.
The $800 starting bid would definitely be enough to keep me a spectator. But only one player is needed. I wonder who bought it. There must be some back story. I hope they end up finding this site an posting something.

It looks like the auction may have just timed out, with no bidders and no Buy-it-Now. I doubt anyone would really be willing to pay that much for a C3 in "not working in many years" condition.
