What is it with ebay, again

[Spyro]

Been watching a tiller pilot simrad tp10 on ebay (used) . It just sold for £200 plus £8 postage!!!!!
You can buy one brand new online with 2 year guarantee for £199. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

Usual thing, people don't check the price of a new item, just assume that as it's an auction "it must be a bargain".
Seen the same thing at boat auctions, where someboby has obviously bought a length of rope, cut it into a dozen lengths and each has gone for more than the cost of the complete coil.

I was watching the same thing and gave up after it went above £100. Cant believe it either.
