Kenton Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 I've no way of judging these things but there seems to have been some genuine competition driving the price of this kit up?  (Unfortunately a sad situation that caused the sale) But about the going rate for these Live Steam kits (complete they can fetch real classic car prices) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What Gostude needs to do is read the listing title....................... "This seller is currently away until 10 May 2012. If you make a purchase, there may be a delay in processing your order." Gives you time to save up for it. Cheers, Mick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horsetan Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Meanwhile, some very suspicious bidding patterns on this one: http://offer.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewBids&item=180859778790&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:BIDN&_trksid=p3984.m1426.l2765 I have to say that I suspect an element of shill bidding here, particularly with bidders' identities being hidden. I wanted to bid for this one yesterday, and put in my maximum. Within a short space of time, there was a rapid succession of underbids from a second bidder, all with the apparent aim of driving up the price. On that basis I withdrew my bid. Surprise, surprise, the "underbidder" also withdrew. On trying again today, the same pattern happened. I think I'll be reporting this one to eBay.....not that they'll do anything.

Surprise, surprise, the "underbidder" also withdrew. On trying again today, the same pattern happened. I think I'll be reporting this one to eBay.....not that they'll do anything. I agree that ebay probably won't do anything, look at that Class 201 that keeps coming round despite being reported by a number of us. Agree also that hiding bidders' identity is a pain and probably does more harm than good. Imposs to tell without being able to see the detail but it may not have been shill, just a newbie almost catching a cold. I notice that when you can see bidders identity, you often get newbies who've learnt that if you keep putting in bids in small increments you can see what the high bidder has bid. They're just a complete waste of space as they never end up being the one who wins anyway. These days if I'm interested in something that I'm prepared to pay a lot of sovs for, I might enter a small bid to keep it on my screen, but only enter real value in last 10 secs (if it hasn't gone above my max). That doesn't save me from sniping progs but does spare me these wallies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Metr0Land Posted April 12, 2012 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 12, 2012 Isn't the definition of insanity - repeating the same process over and over, and expecting a different result? On that basis, it's not only mad but insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
