afcop, I would be negligent if I didn't warn you about the use of phonics to bypass the bad word filter, please be careful.

Sorry about that - wasn't really trying to bypass anything - I say it phonetically all the time rather than the other way. Just habit at this point.

I understand, I use phonetics alot , its an old habit I developed doing the job.
that is why it was as simple as the warning I posted.

At that price, I'd be expecting a G-4 complete set of mercs to come with it..lol. It's kind of odd to me that he has over 70,000 items for sale, but only 1,000 or so feedback.

It's a sales tactic to drive traffic to his other auctions. It works, too- see above.

SPQR - nice deduction. You're probably right. We see one outrageous posting - then go digging & potentiall buying.

Here's what the seller said in the Q&A section: Why does this book cost $1,000? qugelmatic: We price certain books at $1,000 when we are temporarily running low on stock and do not want to sell the item. By setting the price to $1,000 (as opposed to ending the listing), we can just change the price back to normal when we receive stock, ensuring that the book is available for sale again immediately. Be sure to check back soon! I reckon if there's a no-to-minimal fee to ebay store sellers to post that at a BIN price it's a plausible answer.
