Interesting eBay Auctions
Mar 14, 2012
I am going to start putting interesting eBay auctions I run across (separate from the head scratching thread The Wonders of eBay ) that I think are interesting or worth a look. Feel free to add your own, or add commentary on anything posted here. I am not the seller or affiliated with any of these sellers, by default.

Nope. That's my council rates, house insurance, power, car insurance and water for a year. Plus some left over.
For a book printed in 1977...
Why would someone pay this? David/The Tolkien Bookshelf had an unsigned copy listed for less than this for years and nobody bought it until quite recently (this year I think). £3000 just isn't market value.

If there is one class of people, I will never understand, it is collectors. I guess people might be buying something like this purely as speculation, though. We do live in a time where a small percentage of the population has an awful lot of money, mind.
I think this was more of a "was this price, now reduced to this price!" kind of sale i.e. a deal. And folks love a deal.
I’ve watched the item as well. It was an auction with the option to give an offer. But when it is sold , even for less, this is not stated and you can’t see the real selling price. You only see the asking price.
I’ve noticed that in several eBay auctions.
