I wonder if this would be worth more if he tied it to the back of a car and dragged it around the block a few times!

Re: Ebay's most overpriced item, add what you find
Marcel, I find things everyday that are ridiculously overpriced-
such as a half full tin of Decca rusty soft tone needles - $122
a late 1950s HMV radiogram, that has been on ebay for years and years at $450
and my all time favourite - another HMV radiogram - mid 1970s listed as 'perfect', but actually described as needing TLC (ie the cabinet is stuffed) when you read the description for the bargain basement price of only $3000.
I am currently looking for an HMV Model 660 radio - one just went unsold in Victoria for $500. They wonder why they don't get any bids!

Hi Recordo
I have seen this one on ebay for quite a few years now, the seller just keeps listing it, what a waste of money. Maybe I should sell him a couple of dozen in good condition, I could retire on that!
