Woodbutcher Posted January 20, 2021 Posted January 20, 2021 The Tippi Saunders that just finished on the bay ... crept up from £5.99 to £181.50 over a few days as would be expected . The two 'finishers' jump in with $2222.22 and $2472.22 to end it .... And the jump from $181.50 to $2222.22 came from the same bidder ... ! Expensive for someone Snipe cock-up or malfunction .

Really weird. A $200 record goes for ten times as much? I watched and put in one bid. The winner might be feeling pretty sick - maybe they will withdraw it? The underbidder might just have been shivving for a laugh. We know there’s a millionaire bidder out there who makes one bid only, and only on nice mint items - I suspect their usual bid is something like $3,000 or $5,000 which would guarantee winning pretty much everything. It could of course be another ‘dealer intercept’ who plans to press 300 copies at £20 a pop thereby making a tidy profit. I suppose anyone could put in a silly bid and spoil the auction by later withdrawing it. Some of the more prolific eBay buyers have dozens of withdrawn bids against by identity which hints at their MO. 1
Dobber Posted January 20, 2021 Posted January 20, 2021 Looks like a cock up to me! It ain’t a patch on the Yvonne Vaughn on dot version,I don’t know if Yvonne is the original version or not? But Yvonne is quite rare but never any more than about 400 quid! 2
