Sorry to offend -- but when I announced an EGA card for sale in this
group, distribution "usa", I received requests from all over, and it
was sold to someone in Wisconsin.

I will agree that people trying to sell stuff above new prices is 
pretty silly (unless someone here on the net is silly enough to buy
it at that price).
