I have often seen items on ebay with totally insane prices. The items tend to stay listed for years without selling. A lot of times, these are from Japan listings. Gotta wonder what these people are thinking. Examples are something like Krell KAV-280p for $2,000-3000 (street price is $1200). Bryston SP2 for something like $3,000 (street price $1200 or so)
Scam dealer on Ebay?
I’ve been noticing an Ebay dealer by the handle "skillful_sailor_japan" selling some good kit at exorbitant prices. Sponsored listings so they come up in your searches. Be careful out there especially if you’re not used to buying online/ebay. An example is a Jelco 250 (retails for $350) for $2000.
