You got it, Helmut. That's just what I was going to say, but it seemed too obvious. Guess his strategy worked: the listing has been posted on Mopo (including on Mopo's website), thus more people will look at it, then look at his other listings, then potentially make a purchase of something else he has up. Cost to him: zip.
Not a strategy I use myself but there's nothing "crack baby" about it.

Karloff/Price Needless to say that the price is completely ridiculous, but since eBay allows you to list a few items for free every month, it may have cost him nothing, and if the idea was to draw attention to his auctions, it apparently worked: He's now discussed on Mopo, for whatever that's worth... ;-) Helmut Am 30.10.2009 um 14:37 schrieb John Waldman: Another one of Ebay's crack baby sellers. Some people must have a lot of time on their hands to list something that will never sell at the listed price.
