Cisco 1601 Power Supplies

I got a Cisco 1601 off eBay without a power supply. I figured it was
no big deal since I have a bunch of power supplies for various items
lying around. However, this one strangly takes a PS2 connector and is
14 VDC. I had a hard time finding them to purchase online but I have
now found a few places.

The question is, why to most eBay auctions not include the power
supplies for these 1600 series routers? Are they more valuable than
the router itself? Or do they go bad quite often? I can't understand
why a majority of sellers wouldn't have kept the power supply with the
router.

Thanks.

Jim

When the tech bubble burst a few years ago, a lot of resellers got ****ed
big time on the Cisco routers they were holding. I have receipts from eBay
in 2001 where I paid over $200 for 1601's. Today I bought three, with power
supplies, for less than $200 total. Cisco guys don't make the money they
once did, Cisco itself doesn't make the money it once did, and the prices
for Cisco routers on the used market have tanked. I picked up a 1601 here
in Orlando for $25 and it was in mint condition with the OS. Can't beat
that.

Just say no to the clowns selling them separately. They are clearly trying
to scoop up extra dough this way. Cisco doesn't sell them separately, so
don't take it from these bozos.
