I love the $10 "economy" shipping charge.

A real bargain on shipping, considering the starting price!

Its over 3 inches wide and tall!!! :roll:

Yeah, I wish I had $100k to blow right now, but if I did,that is the last thing I'd think about buying with it. I wish him luck selling it for that price.

 

[withnail]

Still no bids??? :rofl:

I think they must have put a few 0's in by mistake

On the other end of the spectrum, I got a notice about a new calabash listed on eBay. It was a Pioneer from the 1970s. It was listed as new in the box and the pictures confirmed that it was indeed brand spanking new.
It had a buy it now price of $45.00 and free shipping. 8O
Needless to say, it was long gone by the time I looked.
Someone got a screaming deal buying from someone else that didn't know what they were selling.

GIVE Me a BRAKE!!!!! :crazy: Are they NUTS?

 

[ontario]

To many 0's

Surely must be an error at the keyboard. All I can say, is there are a lot more important things id spend 100k on :lol:

 

[riptide]

WTF not in this life time. It better have solid Platinum stem and 12 20ct blue diamonds on it.

 

[kcghost]

You have to wonder what make the seller think that there is anyone in the world who would value this object so highly. The $10 shipping is priceless.

 

[pipedisciple]

Even if I had the $$$, I wouldn't bid on it. :roll:

$10 is what that person probably finds in change under their sofa cushions.

I think you mean, their housekeeper find the change in the sofa.

I think ontario is right ... he hit the zero key at least two extra times.
And if he did it on purpose he's a blimmin' fool.

 

[ssjones]

A weird listing for sure, from a seller with 867 auctions....

Looks pretty cumbersome to smoke. I can see pulling that out of your pocket for a smoke

 

[shaintiques]

Crazy!
