Well, yeah, but I did do a summary, and I was saddled with the problem of so much information that had to be given. I thought I did pretty well on the length considering the subject matter.

Very true, but I must have missed one of the marks I was trying to aquire. While true of anything you buy on eBay (David is right), the Snap Guardian units require special attention due to the difficulty of getting and expense of some of the parts, and the difficulties of getting and expense of the OS if it is not up to date. Missing parts, missing OS, or out of date OS drops the value of a Guardian Snap unit dramatically.
