4/6, to be precise. I'm sure I don't need to waffle on about how integral a card like this is to a PC - you've all been there. So stoked to have it here.

I'm certain I overpaid for it, and I don't care. Anyone mildly resourceful would know what I paid. The point is, you don't get many shots at something like this, and now with it in hand, the sacrifices are totally worth it.

My esteemed colleagues, may I present...

*Edit* just checked ebay :lol:
I was actually expecting more, nice pick up ;)
 
Sick card, congrats

Im sure everyone has in other people eyes overpaid for something in the past, as long as your stoked thats all that matters.
 
Esteemed colleague? Me? I think with cards of that calibre I should be referring to you as my esteemed colleague!
 
It's never overpaying if it's PC! Espically that low numbered! I paid more then any human with a trace of a brain would have for my Julius Hodge Logoman/s but they aint going no where!! Sensational pickup!
 
Awesome pickup nickelarse, that is a ripper.

Love the "I think I overpaid but i don't care" attitude, sometimes you have to pay the price (or more) to get what you need. And yes, I too have found that PC items generally carry a 100% stupidity hike in the max bid to make sure you get what you want!!

I just checked ebay again......if the bloke who came second didn't bid you would have scooped it for $250 less! Ouch!

I hate it when one bidder makes you pay so much more, but I guess with a max bid the bottom line is that you have to be prepared to pay your max.
 
Thanks very much everyone, it's great to have it here in Australia where it belongs.

What ebay won't tell you is how close it really was in bidding at the end. The last bidder threw down the gauntlet at US$888.88. My max bid was $899 - if they have had gone $900, I would have missed out!
