I stumbled upon this item during a search for components at Goodwill. The price of $9K seems quite high, especially for a motherboard and Athlon X2 setup.

It seems you intended to pay $90.00, but the charge was $9000... which is clearly over $100 and even $1000.

It really doesn't add up unless this piece has an extraordinary quality to it.

It seems like you're describing an online auction platform where bids increase over time. If you entered a price of $9,000, it would still be one dollar higher than the last highest offer... someone reached that amount and another had to compete. I'm curious about what draws you to this kind of mystery!

So, I’d assume it was priced very high, with lots of bids coming in because everyone thought it was worth something. Your prediction matches what I expected!

It contains gold and copper, making it valuable enough for a small fraction of a dollar.
