James,

I don't believe that tange@daimi.aau.dk was looking to purchase the 2 gig
drive for $250.00.  He stated he was willing to pay $250 PER GIGABYTE. 
Note his formulae: 

New:  $250 * (Formated capacity in GB)
Used: $200 * (Formated capacity in GB)

ie: $250 * 2GB = $500.00.

Please be a little more careful before you "laugh your ass off".
