Nice looking auction... but you don't mention whether or not the mounting sled is included. Mark I mounting sleds are almost impossible to come by these days...

(From the auction)
Comes with:
Wiring harness for mounting in-dash
AC adaptor for plugging in away from car
USB cable for plugging into your computer
Software is available as a free download from empeg's website
Credit-card sized infrared remote
Guarantee against DOA

Unfortunatly both my friends that really want one are poor at the moment. The Mark 2 is out of their range, but this would be perfect. If only one hadn't spent $350 on the CD player and $150 on the Rio Volt.

Yes... I saw that... but was still left wondering if by that he means the actual docking sled, or perhaps it is just the ISO adapter?

Without the actual docking sled, the usefulness of that Mark I will be seriously compromised.

Oh, he must have the sled... if all he's used it for is to play music on his desk. Right?

The Mk1 didn't have an ISO adaptor, just this bundle of cables from the dock:

Looking at the pictures, it definitly looks like it's been in and out of the sled only a few times at most. Definitly not enough to show wear and tear from car use. Expecially since the Mk1 sleds didn't have the cuts around the points that made contact with the players case.
