$3557.00!

Someone is going to have some explaining to do!
I just posted in another thread, a bit of a derail but it was somewhat on topic. The thing that bothers me is someone put in the winning $3557 bid after it jumped to $3507! Hahaha, if I was that seller I'd be suing in court over that. It is a solid $3200 over its value in my opinion.
Someone has money to burn. Your ducks should be worth at least $1,000.00 each!!
I saw this earlier today and put it on my watch list. That's crazy it ended up at that price. Don't get me wrong, it's a nice razor. I guarantee, 100% that it was not a Canadian who bought it. :rofl2:
You would think... :rofl2:Quote:

Never drink & bid,,,:beer2:
Now if he'd thrown in a case of Pinaud,,, then I'm in it,,,:D
I messaged the seller to see if he would let me know the outcome. He said he has no clue why or what happened, but it is kinda soon to know that. My guess is two people wanted it bad and sniped it high enough to ensure they won. Hahahaha, I'd be holding their feet to the fire in a court of law if I was the seller. It is a legal contract to pay, isn't it??
From Facebook page:
That guy is me. I put in 210.00 and my phone didn't pick up on the "." So it registered 21,000. I have already contacted eBay an the bid has been canceled
I totally agree. A hand laid, is a hand played!Quote:

It was NOT me... Justin Davis...
I THINK he is a member here maybe...
POOR guys heart is going to jump out of his chest......
The seller said he already relisted it. However, someone else bid $3507 in second place, and 3rd place was $752, so there's a few players bidding high in a hope to win. If ebay let's this type of behavior exist then I don't want to play by their game. As a seller, you have multiple players bidding insanely high to gurantee a winning bid, then the one with the hot potato backs out in the end.
Agree. Thats crazy. :lurk:
So the seller relisted instead of the razor going to the second or third bidder?? And by the way...that one dot sure made a huge difference:)
I would think to offer it to the second highest bidder would be the right thing to do....
I was wondering what happened. I looked at what the seller was selling just now and saw it was relisted..... Reading the above messages, now I see what happened.
The 2nd chance offer should be issued.
Wonder if the guy who had 2nd highest bid did the same thing and then refused the 2nd chance offer?
What ever happened it shouldn't have. I find it hard to believe 3 people all screwed up in the last few seconds. Thought I had a shot at $250.00. Even that was what I think would be the top. at least for me. To many razors not enough money. lol
Wow Maybe I should be putting my three up on the auction block?
Knew that was crazy and wouldn't fly, does it explain the other bid though?
Watched another W&B, The Celebrated, Hollow Ground Razor, For Barber's Use go for $510.00 USD last night...with the exchange rate for Canadian, plus the import and shipping (eBay GSP) would have been close to $1,000 Cdn dollars.
Almost felt like an old timer here for the first time, couple of years ago when the exchange rate was almost at par, hearing some of the older members be shocked at paying $200-$250 for these W&B's, watching some of these razors regularly go for even much higher now (saw a couple in the $800 USD range) shocks me in the same way, glad I'm not shopping for these beasts now.....:shrug:
It's pretty simple, you put bidders who pull that crap on your blocked list. Mine is quite long now and I haven't suffered for having my safeguards lit up like a pinball machine.
Winning bid was actually $610 which makes it $25,000 Canadian Money.Quote:

I also just have bin auctions on nice stuff a lot of the time
Wow! that's crazy nice blade I think the blade would be worth $400, the scales are new the peening and washers plus the wedge are all new and done very poorly at that, overpriced by more than $3000 dollars that takes the biscuit.
