Ebay gone to the Wolves

Post by norseman »

Tell me brothers and sisters,whats going on with the rediculous prices that our beloved vinyl is reaching on ebay.I feel there is a darker element entering the proceedings and disrupting the whole business,what do you think?.......I know this subject has been covered in other topics and I have read some very interesting comments made by others which has answered some of my questions.What have you noticed?

Those are all from the same seller and none of them have any bids (at the time that I write this, with 12 hours left.) I fail to see the problem.

Norseman, what do you mean by "darker element", just plain human greed or ...?

Large amounts of money changing hands and for items that obviously are not worth it.Ebay is,for example,an easy way to launder money.Or to have false bids to drive up the price and many other ways to decieve the runnings of the auction.I only put links to recordlikedirt to show,that because of high prices,others are now jumping on the band wagon and all these ways are going to ruin it for everyone.There is much more suspicious goings on such as "TJBB"

r_trpublik,I think you are right and I am going to re-think selling on ebay with their high charges.I have purchased a couple of you from reggae-auction.com but I had problems with listing my own stuff for some reason.If you can help out in anyway then I would be greatful.
