Hi, I don't collect modern stuff but ran across this:

As far as I know black PPRo's are pretty rare. So was that a lucky bastard that got it?

They used to be rare and expensive. But now a common gold PPro goes for whooping 15-20 EUR.

Times are changing.

So what "was" expensive for a black PPro?

why do you consider black PPRO is rare?
They are lack of gold so you can always get them more cheaper from scrappers than gold ones.

They are not that rare, and gold price of black Pentium Pro is about $12, so it wasn't a great deal.
