Fred, Spica for $801 and Jupiter for $300 are in different cathegories. See, < $500 and > $500 are two completely different cathegories of sextants on e-bay. From my point of view:-) (There is also a separate cathegory of < $100 which I usually exclude when I search pon e-bay). (When I was young I had a friend who used to say < $100 is NOT money. $1,000 is (some) money, And > 10,000 is BIG money:-) This was in Soviet Union, 20 years ago, or so:-) This friend was frequently beaten (I mean physically!) by the police. Sorry, for the info which is definitely out of the list scope:-) Alex.
