Commodore 264 on eBay

So...have you seen the C264 on Ebay? Got money for that one too?

What is the typical production date for one of those C264, C232 and the two (?) C364's? Since my very early TED prototype motherboard (with DB9 joystick ports and card-edge cassette connector) is dated August 1983, I would expect a C264 to be manufactured in very late 1983 or early 1984. Regretfully my board neither is functional nor came with an original case, but probably it was fitted into a C64 breadbox case.

To confuse further, there is the conmemorative Canadian Olympic Plus/4 which impossibly could have been released for neither of the two 1984 Olympic Games. I think it rather was launched in the fall or Christmas 1984?

Kinda messed up but I think that dude got it off a lady on craigslist who didn't realize what she had. I emailed someone up there to ask about it and she had just gotten rid of a bunch of C= equipment but was looking local. Guess ya win some and lose some.
