It is possible he got good money for some of his DDs. He's got Christmas records there, I think I saw and these go a bit high. Maybe one was LUNF which usually goes for more than $100. We don't know if they were 52000 series, right?

I wrote him when he first posted. I told him in a nice way that he was spending more on Ebay fees than what the records are worth. He told me that he had sold six also. I think the tooth fairy bought them. What really bothers me about nuts like this is that their insanity has a tendency to spread. I haven't bought a cylinder or disc record off ebay in I don't know how long. If people like this ask crazy prices over and over again it soon becomes the norm. \\\\\----- Original Message ----- From: "William Buchanan" <[email protected]> To: "Antique Phonograph List" <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, August 17, 2009 10:14 PM Subject: Re: [Phono-L] What A Beauty On Ebay! I wrote the individual asking how he came up with the price and he responded with "We had the records appraised by an antique dealer. They're appraised at $250-375 depending the song." Then when I replied to his email he threatened to report me to ebay. He also informed me that he had sold 6 of the records at this price.
