Default Ebay -- 15k OVER?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eb...425189&r=0&t=0

I HAVE to believe that these people think they are getting the car for that cost. If not, though, that is the largest mark-up i've seen yet.

still -- i think i'll keep my z

People on ebay can be total morons.

I had an ad up for a Jeep top. In the very first sentance of the add I said "this is for the soft parts of the top only. There are no frame pieces or other hard pieces included." In two other places I explained how you would HAVE to have an existing soft top to use what I was selling.

I had *six* people email me and ask me "is the frame included?" before the auction ended. Then, AFTER the auction ended, the high bidder emails me and goes "ok, so this is everything I need to put the top on my jeep right?"

It was amazing. I can't imagine you'd bid $15k on a car without having any clue what you're getting.

"You are not bidding on the price of the car, but you ARE bidding on the $500 deposit plus the secured order at sticker price "

I said I'd never sell my Z for a profit, but if you can get 16 large for it??? Holy crap I might have to reconsider. I seriously doubt this one will go down that way though.
