There was a seller (Gary Young, IIRC) offering new Microtech upgrades
on the list for $60. Who is asking $125 for these upgrades, and more to
the point, who is paying? I bought a $60 upgrade and it was sealed/new,
complete with a handy little tool for opening the eMate, and needless
to say worked perfectly.
Whilst I appreciate there is some confusing over this NY seller,
personally, I wouldn't be bothering. I thought they were selling for a
charity or somesuch, on the assumption these machines were donated.
This memory move, and the realignment of prices, smacks of
profiteering. If new memory is $60, which it is, then used must surely
be worth less.
