High Priced Lightning HG

[deenodean]

Can Anyone out there figure out why this jar is priced so high? Also with the shipping costs it must be hand delivered!

They are counting on "The Stupid Factor" TSF and the fact that it has that "Rare" incorrect lid. Actually, I don't remember ever seeing one of those lids that would fit on a LIGHTNING. I might bid myself. [] NOT !

Another case of "I can list for free so lets make life miserable for others", or just going fishing.
I'm thinking of doing it just as a protest on fees on the shipping myself. Why the H not.

Nothing special about that one. Even the lid is wrong. But, to be fair, I see jars like aqua lightnings priced extremely high in brick and mortar stores as well. Maybe not quite as high as you'll see on ebay, but I've seen aqua lightnings priced above $75. I've seen normal 1858's in aqua priced similarly as well.

It's like Botlguy said, it's the stupid factor. But if you want a good laugh, here's some other ridiculous posts I found on ebay this morning

That second one has been on there every week for over a month, the bid keeps coming down about $25 each time

A simple email to the seller made her realize she typed the wrong amount into the price box, she sent me this and fixed the issue...

Dear epackage02,

I checked out her other items and realized it was a simple mistake, all her stuff is priced normally...

The seller on flea-bay who takes the cake, has got to be Roland Perrett, the guy who lists 1 dollar three in one oils for 600.00 dollars. the guy is a complete maroon.........
