probably because of how high it got, maybe they have a concious and saw that there is interest, there will be more, and there is no point for someone to pay over double what they will sell them for, of course they probably did it just to piss bid snipers off

I thought there was glitch in the Matrix when I went to check out the auction again and it was at 175 and 0 bids.

I knew my faith in humanity was misplaced"The seller ended this listing early because the item is no longer available for sale."

they sold it early, OR they never had one for sale in the first place and were just testing the water

The reason people end auctions early is because their reserve wasn't reached even if you don't see a reserve on the auction. They have a certain price that they would accept without putting a reserve up which normally is distracting to most people.

that is true however, the manifold price was shooting through the roof, it was going for more than a SR manifold and was a way worse design

Last time I checked, it was up to $405. I'm thinking that would have been enough to make them happy. Ya never know, maybe one of their buds decided he wanted it. I hope they make more, the price will eventually come down once all the guys that have money get theirs. Of course, the guys with money should get the one Dee is getting made.
