Either these floors are really popular in germany or its the same
seller as this 3D minestorm repro. (£116) ..and that's a whole
different debate..

the strange thing about this guy is he is selling more repro stuff like
this one:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=8208709508
ok, it's another ebay-name but i saw both of them (tricky686 and
supatrupa4u) selling repro gamepads and those repro games from mark
shaker (and they have the same layout and photo background).
i wonder why this guy does'n feel bad since it's obvious his customers
(mostly low ID) didn't notice the word "repro" or he does'n point it
out clearly like in the auction above...

Aspirant Vectrex collectors should definately learn how to read German,
although the seller also lists in English at the moment.

Strangly enough it doesn't seem to matter, people buy them anyway??

With all these fake copies it looks like extra care really should be taken
next time a 'REAL' one is offered thru e-bay,
