6 vent sills. . . . .Thats a bit of a bummer.

Still, I honestly reckon that the final price was pretty good when compared to a M-Machine one. I expected it to go for around £1,500

Yes.... with the normal e bay type prices I must admit I expected it to make £1000 to £1500 as well.

The seller has 4 of them. :shock:

I stuck a good bid in on this and out bid straight away! I was also the first to bid on this too, its already sky high with less than a day gone.. Am I being paranoid or would you suspect this is being run up? I know the seller is a forum member but... eBay psycology, normal stuff isn't this high so quickly! Everyone wants a bargain to a certain extent and I know it's a bundle of goodies but blummin ekk!!

Thoughts??

There's so much shill bidding going on with Ebay it's tough to tell but it doesn't help when bidder's information is kept private. It'll only go for what someone's prepared to pay at the end of the day so it hardly matters on this well publicised item and yes everyone wants a bargain but with the weakeness of stirling it's not gonna happen unless someone's listed it poorly.

NEARLY 34 Grand!

That's more than I paid for my first house!

No wonder I could never afford to replace my snap on stuff when it was stolen.

That is the most extraordinary eBay auction I have ever seen!
But I liked the style of the first bidder with £1.04. Nice try! :lol:

Seeing as this has become an Ebay links thread, thought I'd flag this useful panel up....
