I was wondering the same thing.

I'd been watching this auction since it was listed, but I guess someone with deeper pockets also had their eye on it.  It would appear that I was the second highest bidder, but second highest isn't enough to win an auction, lol.  Oh well, maybe next time!  :(

Same. And I was only #4. Clearly, I need to step up my game. (Or set aside my desire for the board...)

Take heart: Model F-AT's still appear regularly, have more keys, and cost a fifth as much.

Of course they don't have the same hysteria factor. How important that is depends on your values.

I've got an F62, and an F107. And I've ordered one of Ellipse's F77. And when the doubleshot spherical buckling spring caps hit, I'm going to deck out that F77 with some of those. I'm really more excited for the FEXT and similar projects than an F104, but it doesn't reduce the desire and the chance at a rare board.
