Some people should be forced to do a bit of research before being let loose on eBay!

Over the last week or so, there have been several titles in the excellent Workshop Practice Series listed. The titles are still in print and readily available but the prices that these items have gone for have been 2 to 3 times the regular bookshop price. .:?

There's a current auction for the title Mini-Lathe which is at $62 plus shipping. Several online bookshops have it at $19.95 plus shipping. :oo:


There, I feel better now.:;

Let the buyer be where.

You can't blame the seller.

if the buyers don.t know what the normal retail prices are that's there problem.

as someone who has never sold anything on ebay but having purchased quite a lot I believe I am still ahead of normal retail prices.

Cheers Terry

I certainly don't blame the seller, it's the stupidity of the buyer(s) I was commenting on.

It's not shopping, it's a competition.

Not a smart competition but a competition none the less.
