"Response" from seller with the "Apple-1"

Here's the response I got from the seller who listed that plywood box with
keyboard mounted to it:

"I am so sorry for the late response. I did not even know about this ebay
messages, I have 53 messages now to go through. I thought they all went to
my email account. But I guess only some do. Again, I was not trying to
dodge your question. I have missed many about 90%. I was not aware of this
change in yahoo email."

That's his "answer", which I really appreciate because, you know, I would
really be bothered if the guy tried to dodge my question.  Of course, this
doesn't explain how he somehow didn't miss the 5 questions he did respond
to which are displayed on the auction page (see for yourself: item
#5213140640).

BTW, I received this same exact message twice in response to the two
inquiries I submitted to him, so I'm sure the other 53 questions got
"answered" in a similar fashion.

Another fine example of why I can't stand eBay.
