Someone's new Year's Resolution is to list things for 10 times the value

Certainly looks authentic and certainly worth $150. What the hell, let's ask ten times that. With all the money floating around. People are making it faster than they can spend it.

It's not even in great condition if you check the enlargement. Looks scratched up. But yeah, $1500. Why not? It's just good business!

The bitch of it is someone will probably buy it and then 50 of those will flood eBay, listed for a grand each. Ha.

Who took that photo?

You and I both know the seller has the BIN price so high that when someone makes an offer near what the last of these sold for ($400 something) the buyer will feel better about still spending too much money.

IF someone pays $1500 I might offer the seller a few bucks to give me the buyer's address in order to pull a Paper Moon-esque con with Bukowski substituted for the Bible:cool:

Who took that photo?

that's come up here before and i don't think anyone came up with a definitive answer. i have a copy of this (that i paid between $50 and $100 for :)), and there's no marking, stamp, etc on the photo to show who took it.

Wow, does anyone remember what the last one on eBay sold for? I was watching it, and thought it was about $300.00 but can't remember...
