Shop of Horrors

I don't know if this would be classed as a rip off, but I didn't know where else to post it.

A seller on E-Bay has a Noddy book listed for £1,906.61, plus £1.30 p & p. There's no photo, but it's listed as a 1993 paperback. Apparently it's the story of Noddy and the Goblins - translated into Latin. Sounds interesting.

A grand to read Noddy in Latin, sounds cheap at the price.

He's gotta be joking!!

[7upromana01]

i would sell that book for 3 pounds!

[Smuggler's Top]

I wonder what he'd say if we sent him an email telling him how much this book costs on Amazon or the shops!

Not that Amazon are any better sometimes.

But that's the extremely rare January 1997 edition, Julie! Of course it is expensive

[7upromana01]

Not rip off but staggered to see this! Why would anyone not want this!

They say they have set the starting price much lower than what they paid. I wonder how much they paid? Certainly the seller cannot be a member of the society if this is true.

[Tony Summerfield]

She is a current Society member and receives the Journal!! And this is total rubbish:-

"I have set the starting bid at a much lower price than it was bought for."

I have masses of copies of Journal 44 in stock!!

[Lucky Star]

Well it didn't sell. No bids at all.

Look at these!

Looks as if someone's having a clear out!

[Fiona1986]

Pity they're so expensive. Otherwise I might have considered buying some of them.

[Lucky Star]

Me too. They work out at about £9 each. The problem is that I would need to buy quite a few for my collection and the cost would mount horrendously. However Tony is sold out of most of those issues and so this may be the only chance to get them. Financial dilemna approaching.
