Those prices are crazy, even for a dealer auction. Apparently you live in the same fairyland as some of the people on the boards here, where the Pick-N-Pull sells heads for $50 and climate control PBUs for $10.

Seriously, you could buy that 300D, Band-Aid whatever's wrong with it, drive it to Portland or San Francisco, and flip it for $3K right now.
