    Exactly. Like these that are complete and recently sold for half the price.

    The only reasonable explanation I can come up with is that someone had a broken U28C that they were sentimentally attached to and wanting to get replacement parts ASAP at any price. But no, someone probably just overpaid for no reason.

    The extra two pieces are there to cut up to make the other four pieces the proper length...

    Belongs in the under table junk/parts bin.

    Plenty of pictures, mostly useless. Item should have been out of the box for a clear photo. Not sure who'd bid on such a display.

    Meanwhile, a seller named "UltraSavingsAmerica" is offering a "SWEET DEAL" -- their term, not mine, on a Factory Fresh!!! Kato SD90/43 MAC, for ONLY $24.99 OVER the MSRP! Plus shipping!

    I'm not even going to bother sharing a link or an image.
