Mikiphone in Ebay cheap or not ?

Post by soundgen »

I just saw this on Ebay and thought that might be worth a bid

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... t_64wt_958

I asked the vendor if it was working and got back this cryptic reply !

" Yes it works, £600 and it's yours


- corysexton50 "

Does this imply that the bid of £100 on it at the moment can't be succesfull ? Perhaps after the bidding has finished it wil be relisted !

I think its missing some parts. But I don't know much about them.
I see no reserve on the auction.

it is complete and no there is no reserve so perhaps the starting bid is a friend of the vendor ?

Great, but why is this not posted in our Yankee Trader like all other Ebay listings, etc...??.

Yes, there is even a "UK Trader". So, any listing on UK Ebay or UK whatever....can be posted there a long with items "you" wish to offer. The regular "Yankee trader" section is for members to post "their" or any outside listing they care to pass on to the members. This apply's to Ebay listing, Craigs List, etc....
You may want to check it out. A couple of our members (no names) comb Craigs List and post some great listing that any member close to it can benefit....thanks James....Oh!!!.....Sorry, I said no names.... :lol:.

Complete, apart from the missing needle tin, of course! ;)

Another 'fake' auction with hidden reserve? Very possibly.
