Someone just sent me THIS (this: http://cgi.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/auc.pl?dgtlconv&1270518338).
Now why would anyone wish to spend U$400 on something that I could have supplied for U$320:mental:?

Link doesn't work for me Stan.
Did some digging and managed to get the link through - someone has been taking the happy pills by the look of it !

I was gonna bid on a pair of second hand year old speakers on ebay - they are £375 brand new in the shops - I was gonna go up to £250. They ended up going for £525!!! i.e £150 more than the new price!!

Like wtf!?!?!?!?!

I have seen that loads of times, it happens very frequently with stuff tat ritcher sounds sell, couple of weeks ago q acoustics 1010's sold on eBay for 60+ ... richer sounds price £39.99 ... I have seen it happen with Cambridge audio graded kit too ... And that's even more stupid... I'd def rather buy 12 month g'teed graded for £400 than second hand for £500 for eg...

ebay is full of overbid items. some are genuine mistakes but I am sure many are intentional cons, shills, revenge bids etc. There must be a catalogue of scams out there that cover it. I just can't be bothered looking...
