Ebay madness...
 

This bidding just ended on Ebay minutes ago...

If the price of £70 was already a bit absurd, the fact the Reserve wasn't met makes you wonder how much the author was expecting...


O and a second chance for all in less than half an hour! Carnage! :D

Classic has to put these books back in print.

Talk about carnage, check out the shipping price to the USA L22.50 or approx $40.00 US.....

Re: Hs 129 book
 

Anyone interested in the develeopment and technical aspects of the aircraft (Henschel Hs 129), might wish to check out my latest book, to be published by Midland Publ., in August (much cheaper - but thinner - than Martin Pegg's Classic tome). It has new information and photos, not included in Pegg's 'Panzerjäger!' volume.

A bit of selfish self-promotion... :o

One of the rare cases where our friend sudek was outbid :D

@ Dénes
Any idea about the price of Your forthcoming book?

Re: Ebay madness...
 

954 Euros for a photo of a Panzer? Is there any limit to this madness? Granted, it's one of a kind and 60 years old, and as an archaeologist I appreciate OLD things..........but gimme a break.

Re: Ebay madness...
 

On amazon.ca they list it for CDN$ 35.25 (original UK price £16.99).

Gentlemen,


I hope any of you contemplating putting something up for auction on Ebay are also interested in making money. That is the whole point of an auction. As an art dealer told me once: "It's worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it." Now I am not advocating gouging buyers. But If I list something on an Ebay auction hoping to get $25.00 and someone bids $50.00, should I turn them down? Even if I, myself, think that price is well above average?

Just my 2 cents.
