I've no idea that the list price has been cut at the time of posting.
Thank you for letting me know and thank you for breaking up a successful
deal.

Since the price has dropped, it's again up forsale and I'm baffled
this time...coz the price is way below the price that we, the first
batch of unfortunate PAS-16 owners, bought.

So potential buyers please quote me a price and email me.

Here is the original posting without the price and the game:
