Thread: Ebay is strange

So I saw a old stub tail for sale for $99. No one bid. So now it is relisted at $150. I find this very confusing. Is this a tatic on the bay. Usually when I find something and I think it is priced to high, but no one bids it either stays the same on the relisting or goes down in price. Why if something doesn't sell at 99 would you relist it for 150?

There are lots of fools looking for stuff on the bay! Maybe now someone will see it and think that it is worth $100 and make an offer, which the seller accepts after telling the buying that they are getting a deal!!

Oh buddy, if you are looking for logic on the Bay it is not there. There are so many things that make no sense at all on eBay, I don't even know where to begin. When I do a search for past sales to look at razor prices there are things that you just can't include if you are looking for an average. I have also experienced the delisting of items from my watch list that make no sense and what makes less sense is that they sell. I spend a fair bit of time watching on eBay and weird stuff goes on all the time.

You could offer the seller $500.00 if he'll take $50.00 for the stubtail.

Dumb arses buy tater chips shaped like people's faces ,,, not surprised with the price increase.

If I can find a Merkel chip my world leader collection will be complete.

You know. I guess all I really needed to do was look around at people as I go about my day. Oh yeah it all makes sense now. People are nutz.

For some, $99 may seem like a cheapo razor, but at $150.00, that's got to be a quality antique!! Lol

The only thing to figure out about eBay is that there's nothing to figure out.....

There are many seller on Ebay who like to play games, there are some sellers that are selling or should I say trying to sell the same overpriced razors for years the exact same razor and listing, what's that about I think you all probably seen the big Dorko no one as been foolish enough to buy yet so fare play the straight razor community we must be wiser than we look.

I've actually been thinking about buying that orange scaled DORKO.
