Digi-Comp 1

Bought: $4.51 Sold: $99.99 Fees: $11.72 Profit: $83.76
Chris' 10% Commission: $8.38

This is a really neat "toy" from 1963. It is a "computer" that can solve math problems and output the answer in binary. I wasn't sure what it was worth (none else listed and none sold recently), but I knew it was rare, so I decided to do an auction. Started it at $99.99, which is what it sold for, despite having 7 watchers. This is why I had auctions. I would have been better to put a really high BIN price on this and taken offers. Oh well, lesson learned (again), but still made a decent profit. There is a short Wikipedia article on this if you're interested.
