I think they got the decimal point off about two numbers to the right!

If that one goes to China it might make some of the good ones worth more.

If you had bid on these shutters, you could have found a way to use them on this tractor.....

Holy Crap! Whoever would pay over $1200 for that is a little light in the head.

Did you guys see that crank handle? I wonder what happened to it?

He has 108 overpriced items listed on ebay.. looks like he is playing the "list as much as I can and hope one sells" game .. maybe he can find one person dumb enough to buy something at those prices then he still comes out okay

How much would that weigh?

Thats another of the 74,329 "rare" unstyled WCs. With only slightly more than 178,000 total WCs ever built you better jump on this now!

Even if 2/3s of the unstyled WCs were scrapped or parted out, that leaves over 20,000 unstyled left. I'm pretty confidant there are more than that left. I doubt there are 20,000 of us collectors so it's a good bet the market will be saturated for awhile. It's hard to get $2500 for a very nice one, does this guy not have a clue or is he a crook looking for a sucker.

I've run into a bunch of those kind in the past. The more junk like that a person has the more he things its a gold mine. On the other hand I was at the junk yard today and was amazed at the good stuff people bring in to scrap.
