if the guy knows that there are people like us

There, FTFY. 😉

I was lucky last week to get a V3 3000 AGP with the P3B-F local for about $18 including a P3 and RAM, but this is a very rare occasion these days, and I have to be real quick and stay vigilant. In the similar veins I also got a V3 2000 AGP in a complete P3 rig couple years ago, so I guess that's the pattern for such a bargain ("old PC" considered almost worthless today by the owner, even if they knew its relative value back then).

Just bake it, it'll probably fix it. Not much else you can do it that doesn't work.
