Default Really?
Hi all i was on ebay and stumbled across this auction and thought i would post here to find out what you guys think, but i personaly think he must be deluded to expect it to sell at that price.What are your thoughts?

I thought this one had popped up before as it looks familiar. In any case let him try and sell it for that price. More fool the person that buys it.

£135 delivery? I can only assume that it comes on a unicorn-drawn carriage!

Edit: Just noticed that the listing includes some justification for the shipping. Though Special Delivery would only be around £30 including insurance, unless the whole lot is likely to exceed 10kg?

If he thinks he can sell it at that price he probably needs a crane just to lift his ego.

Just remember what P. T. Barnum said!

Some knucklehead will think this is the greatest deal ever.

Poor soul...
