Here's another mind boggler you guys can comment about. Funny thing too is he has the identity wrong. He's actually selling an Acropora efflorescens, which is not as rare as Acropora solitaryensis (I actually have both ).

Hrm...Liverpool...I should stop by the stores there and find out who's trying to rip peeps off with this auction. I've a good idea which store it is.

Peace,

Have you seen the price of Cod lately SM? - He'll still be coming out far ahead!

 

[cdeakle]

OMG! I would be shocked if anyone actully bid on that.

 

[ricky1414]

If I bought it, it would most likely RTN on me! :lol: 50 grand, who is he kidding...

 

[ricky1414]

MO places have it for anywhere between 75-200 bucks. I'd rather have the one for 50 grand though. There is a noteworthy correlation between asking price and consumer demand. The higher the proce, the greater the consumer want. This guy is just trying to cover his bases. :wink: I'll undercut him big time; I've got a monti cap for a cutthroat price of $25,000.

0 bids. Surprise surprise.

Ebay should charge people each time to put items up for auction. Not just a percentage of the final auction price. To keep people like him in check.

 

[Fozza]

Ebay do charge you a price to list. They charge a price for pictures to.

So ebay gets a fee, regardless to the fact it'll never sell.

Win Win for ebay.

 

[ricky1414]

I did not know that. Thanks for the info

 

[Fozza]

Your welcome

Gee, with this as inspiration, maybe I could go to the LFS and sell 1lb of my cyano for 100 bucks. That would be COOL! :lol:

 

[Arch01]

He wants $50,000 for the thing and won't even pay for shipping. You would think he'd at least pay for shipping. Cheap skate!
