eBay Auction -- Item Number: 140543158190

I bought the cart only at CGE last August, and the programmer said there was no intention to create a manual. So what's this?

Anyone?

Whoever created it (and the MAP), I'm very interested in acquiring it. Please advise.

Looks like the seller made it, by his description. He kind of wrote it ambiguously, but I interpreted it as:

1. He bought the cart loose. (I wasn't there, but it doesn't even look like one of the ones i've seen that came from CGE)
2. He made, or had the box and manual made custom.

Just my opinion.

Thank you, Gentlemen, for your informative responses. I downloaded the manual templates, but I'm still curious about the "map" referred to in the eBay listing.

Anyone else know where that came from? I suspect, as bennybingo suggests, it may be homemade.

it's page 6 of the manual.

Oh. (duh)

What threw me is the photo in the eBay listing. Shows 3 items, none of which are the cart. Assumed it was a separate document.

Thanks!

I too saw this auction and was puzzled. This looks nothing like the CGE cart. The box and manual are definately homemade. The whole listing looks rather shady. I'm willing to bet the cart is a fake as well.

Isn't the cart pictured inside its custom holder? It has the black CGE-only label.

That'll teach me to look closer before annoying the community with pointless questions. Thanks for the help.
