$700 Dorcy spotlight on ebay!!!

[AlexGT]

What is this seller trying to pull, almost $700 for a $40 buck light /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ohgeez.gif

If he sells it I'll sell my modded Thor, maybe I can fund my X990 purchase after all.

Have you heard or seen where this guy surfs ebay looking for items with mis-spelled names (cammera, nicon, coka cola) that he picks up for a song since they have few if any bids posted?

Either the guy is nuttier than a fruit cake, or more likely,neglected to mention that the auction is actually for a case of them (probably 24). I've seen that happen a few times)...

Or maybe he just screwed up the decimal?

Either way his two thousand three hundred and forty-nine /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon15.gif negative feedbacks would probably be enough for me to stay away.

Even if he missed the decimal it would be $69.99. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon15.gif Why the heck doesn't ebay do something about someone with that many negatives?!??!!?! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

 

[bmsmith]

Are you kidding? He's making eBay rich with all of those transactions. Wouldn't want to remove the cash cow, now would we?

Looking through some of the feedback for them and it is clear to me that they do "just barely" what is required and many times miss the mark. For example, printers without ink, even when the description says 95% of ink remaining, and it seems they forget to ship items sometimes, too. Probably doing too much business and are stretched too thin. Just above slimey, and I would probably stay away.

My guess is either it's a typo for one unit or a whole case like mattheww50 suggested and they forgot to write it in the description.

Cool!!!

But you don't have to go to such great lenghts, I will be just fine with your Aussie HID Spotlight /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon15.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Thanks! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I had a friend call and ask me to monitor something he was selling. He listed it just before going into the hospital. The reserve price was reasonable for the item around $100.00 but about the third day of watching I noticed that he had a shipping and handling that was a bit high.
$20,000.00 - and you can't change it after somebody bids.
It didn't sell.
