Re: Caveat emptor

Incredible, indeed! Apparently, for some people, money is only something remote, only a number.

Maybe the 28 of October 1944 is the buyers' birthday :-p

Re: Caveat emptor

I've noticed and come to a few conclusions regarding German eBay. Some people can't read German, others are just unaware that certain photos have been offered multiple times, and still others see a certain photo, and for no apparent reason, decide it's worth a lot of money. Some time ago, a buyer named Sudek13 was just buying and buying. I took it as more than just collecting. Perhaps for a future book?

Sudek13 was a millionaire who was collecting photos for what is now the Archive of Modern Conflict. He also had a team bidding on his behalf and as a result prices rocketed.
