    Apparently he hasn't had any interest in any of his listings! He has each of the items pictured in individual listings. Perhaps if he was selling anything someone was interested in. . .

    Well, it is difficult to get interested in a Futura 900 for $200.
    Based on that and the jacket (other items for sale), I'd say it's safe to assume most of the items are overpriced.

    Ever feel like just emailing a link to the pertinent part of this thread to the posters?

    Why not? It's not like anyone ever changes their ads when we email them and say, "Not your retirement plan, here's why....." We can still laugh (It's not like we can edit our comments after 5 mins anyway ) , and maybe they'll get an education...

    They're coming out of the wood work lately! The cranks, not the treadles.

    The price isn't bad on this one, but it reminds me of those pickup trucks you see, the ones with the different colored boxes.... or hoods...

    That second one looks like those transformer toys they used to make. It looks like if you pull it side to side it might turn into a long arm monster.
