Default Is this good value? NOT!

Saw this on the "bay" and had to share it. I find it hard to get my head around the price and the 203 sold!. Might have sold some but not at that price

They've made a mistake on the price, because when you look at the ones sold they all went for 15 - 16 (not 115). If he gets that much for one set, we all better start selling on ebay! You have to wonder sometimes about some of the sellers.

Is that 1,115 lbs, that's about $1675. I could buy some very nice name brand tools for that.

The cheek of some people, if you look at "other items" they have some nice teatowels for over a grand as well. Still if someone buys them then good luck to the seller.
Now then, anyone want to buy my old tely, its 'rare' 'collectable' 'professional' and yours for a mere £14,000 Plus free shipping

Crazy world huh?
