I grabbed the one that ended Wednesday. I've always wanted a Elite Avant Garde and getting the winning bid on a new one really was beyond anything I ever dreamed.

I wonder myself if he has more or is this the end,

Finally a EAG owner regards!

Just received the EAG v2 and it's in flawless/mint condition. There are only two things of note. The first is the power cord was wrapped around the power adapter which doesn't seem right for a factory fresh unit. I also would have thought they would ship with a registration/warranty card, none was included.

Two games played so far from both sides of the board. I held out well for about 25 moves then things went pretty bad for me :oops:

This may have the last one he, I've not seen anymore on Ebay.

Beautiful EAG and happy owner regards,
Eric
