Gordon, how do you know these are the same P80s that were listed here? What was the deal with those ones?
Hi E.T.

I'm only 99.9% sure its the same ones

The For Sale ads were from a user who was brand new on RCU. "Loosecannon" posted 2 P-80's for aution on Ebay, NIB, from Australia. I deleted the post and PM'd him to explain why. Later that day he posted the same ad again. I moved the thread to the "Bad thread holding forum" (A temp forum that acts as a two-step delete). In case his re-post happened because he was a new user that did not know how to read PM's - this time I used email to explain to him why the post was deleted again.

Now, it's possible that two different people from Australia posted Ebay ads for 2 P-80's at the same time... but an Ebay serach found only one such ad, not two.
