I would never buy a 55 without a slab anyway. But some bidders on ebay are in another tax bracket that most and this is play money. |

No one's getting hurt. It's all shill bidding.
15 bids on this one, 13 of them from the same bidder, who bids 41% of the time on items from this seller.
Suspicions have always been that this is actually a form of money laundering, assuming the high bidder actually pays for his item.

Wow, I want one of those for my counterfeit collection, but think maybe ten bucks would be about right and $700 a bit high, eh?

@nss-52, is that the fake one that was listed? I'm no good at spotting fakes.

@HGK3 seems like a really dumb form of money laundering since you give 10% to ebay |

Oh I actually forgot I posted this. Thanks for getting it taken down! This is one of the most common fakes I see out there, unfortunately they are almost always very expensive.
