Any other eBay users spot the various errors in the 'Standard's
****-poor reporting of this? "Oooo! Look! They can get station dot
matrix displays for just 99p!" Yeah, right, apart from the fact that
the listing screen-grab they showed was clearly too small a display,
it had reserved price on a starting price of 99p, with a "Buy it Now"
of £180 - all hints that nobody was going to get it for "just 99p"!!
