Franz PA hutch. Is it this good?

[blobbottlebob]

Just curious I guess. Some seller on the bay is asking about $2,500 for an aqua Franz Pa hutch. Is it really rare or something?

Just read some of the listing. He mentions a 'possible pontil' on the base. There's a warning sign . . .

I once sent a polite message to a seller telling them their common RI bottle wasn't worth the $24.90 they were asking. They relisted it for $2,490, and it's been like that for a few months.

This seller is a complete Jackass, the bottle will be listed next week for 33¢, just like this one.....he does this with all his bottles

I suppose ebay is encouraging this behavior right now with their no listing fees policy. In the old days, the higher the starting price the greater the listing fees were. Now they get you with final fees and fees on shipping.

I was looking through some of the stuff, figured they at least had a wood-stove. [][]
