He has it listed 4 different times at 4 different prices. Just does it to get you to look at his stuff. Guess it works :D

Well I don't want it for $149, but $21,000,000 that is a different story. Must be worth something to sell it for that. Plus if I buy it a that price shipping is free.

the guy is local and he doesn't sell anything. he just lists items for attention. a moron if you ask me. he has stuff listed on craigslist too. he has a bunch of stuff but doesn't intend to sell any of it.

If this guy lists his stuff all over the place of all these Basbeall items he owns.

Wouldn't this be like painting a target on himself for someone to break into his house and steal it???

TAKE 1: Starting bid of $21 Million dollars

TAKE 2: Starting bid of 99 CENTS

I guess at first if you don't succeed, try try again?

How is that any different than us posting our collections here or on our own websites?

Stealing collections is unlikely because GU items are unique especially the really valuable ones and it is hard to sell them without people noticing. If it were put in an auction or a dealer's website after being posted as stolen on here it would be recognized instantly by how many people. Also not everyone keeps their collection at home. And if someone is worried about it just use a PO Box or your office as your address when transacting hobby business, which alot of people do.

exactly. I don't think putting your stuff online sets you up for robbery. I do use a different address for all my transactions, just because I don't want packages left at my apartment door. Many yahoos around here...
