AW: [simpits-tech] You're NOT going to believe what's on eBay rightnow...

Hey Marv,

take it easy, I get also no access to this site - it seems that a German
restriction exists too.

Greetings

This seems to be a problem with how eBay does it's "country" blocking.
(thanks to the french gov't)

The auction is for a complete Enigma machine.  It includes the 3 rotors
(some have been restored) and it was a Wermacht machine.  (The
Kriegsmarine and Luftwaffe had their own "style" of Enigma as well)  The
bidding is up to $11,238.00 and the reserve has not yet been met which
isn't a surprise.  The machine is located in Germany.
