Even bigger Ebay dreamer

Postby Dominic » Sun Jun 06, 2010 5:07 pm

I noticed a thread in the "gear for sale" forum where there is a 'dreamer' selling 3 Orban bits for $7500 odd and the post was Ebay Dreamer, well me think this puts that guy in 2nd place,

For that price I would expect both John and George to be exhumed as well.

Now that guy takes the dreamer award for......god knows what!!!

lovely piece of gear, but not worth 100 g's. Maybe $12K history included? What would you pay?
Maybe they'll let it go for iced vovo's, cup of tea and a nice chat?

actually you do pay GST on second hand goods if they're imported (and go through customs).

Originally listed for $100,000.

http://cgi.ebay.com/EMI-RS61-Microphone ... 655wt_1139


I'm thinking it will finish around $8,000 or around $90,000 below the original asking price?#!%

Anyone want to guess the final price?
