NQAI (new acronym) No Question About It. Something wrong here.

Ben is certainly right. Good stuff should bring a good price and GREAT stuff should bring a GREAT price! BUT this is only fair to mediocre.

I can't figure this out. Have seen a few other auctions like it. The seller should have to pay high eBay fees for a $2025 sale. Unless the seller and bidder agreed to negate the transaction though eBay. This would be transparent to the auction page.

Then, maybe, someone puts up the kampilan in his shop and asks $2025 (or even offers it at a bargain price of $1695) and shows another buyer a copy of the eBay auction that it sold for a LOT of money?

I think that I have seen the pictures of the kampilan somewhere else and connected to someone else.

Just can't remember. They say the second thing to go is your memory. Can't remember the first... goes off babbling

Hi Ben,

I think that the private ID is a seller choice when he lists on eBay.

Usually the bidder's name is hidden in transactions over $200 USD on eBay USA. But the final bidder is named.

The seller has one feedback point as a seller and appears to have never bought or sold anything remotely resembling this kampilan.
