Unfortunatly, I couldn't get that number from this:
http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=3D177&item=3D515049>
> 3213&rd
I tried several combinations, but gave up after two
unsuccessful tries...I don't make it my business to
know eBay's auction numbering scheme, so when I
attempted to decode it and failed, I moved on.
