For an example of what happens when two naïve bidders just have to have
something, see the bidding on eBay #111013678879. And there's another
almost identical machine on eBay right now by the same seller with a
buy-it-now price of $350. But maybe I'm not seeing something that makes
this machine
Merle,
Have you noticed that the one sold and the one for sale for $350 are the
same machine? Same seller. Mumbai, India. Very fishy.

The other machine isn't almost identical, it IS identical. Same nicks in the
same places, see the one on the leading edge of the front at the top, about an
inch and a half from the right front corner, turntable velvet, etc.
So what really is going on here?

Oh--you saw that it was the same seller. It's got to be the same machine.

And why would they have one auction with a Buy it Now and one without, unless
the first (staged?) one was designed to make an unwary buyer think that they
were getting a screaming deal to do the B.I.N.

Andy,
If the first auction were to have been staged by shill bidders, and the
item sold, would they not have to pay a hefty fee to eBay for the sale at
that lofty amount?

So, if this one is staged, who ended up purchasing it? With a winning bid
recorded, this will cost the seller between $1000 + in ebay and paypal fees, no?
Thats far more than the $350 BIN on the other he is perceived to be leading the
unwary buyer to. What am I missing with that logic?

WTB-- I'm looking for the threaded clamp ring for a small Columbia floating
reproducer. I'd be happy with original or repro. Anyone have an extra one
around for a reasonable price? Thanks-

Great point. I hadn't gotten that far in my thinking. I wonder if the seller
can simply report that the high bidder was a deadbeat.
Perhaps as long as Paypal doesn't see the purported funds, this might be easy
for them to do. Still it seems they'd have listing fees, which would be
The underbidders can have my Decca for a lot less than $8500, and mine
still has its correct soundbox!

If the 'winner' of the first one doesn't pay, the seller would eventually
get their eBay fees refunded. PayPal would not be involved since nothing was
paid through PayPal.

You think with all the effort and thought the seller put into these two
auctions (of the same machine), he/she would not have utlized the same machine
pics.
It goes to show...when one chooses to deceive, its difficult covering ALL your
tracks :)

Hi All,
I was wondering if folks have a favorite recording they reach for (or
require) when they are testing the chops of a new machine or a new/repaired
reproducer?
If you have one, why? I'm interested in reasons technical (e.g., wide
frequency / volume variation) to personal (e.g., it's you
