vagaries of ebay?

Having watched and bid on Shimano charter specials for the last 7 weeks I am amazed at the differences in sale prices over that time. The first 5 that I lost out on went for £76 to £87.

The one I did win, I got for £41. Tonight another went for £42. All were pictured and in great condition.

I cannot get my head round the range in price?

Just what you fancy at the time isnt it

When I was selling my eliminator recently I noticed a E1000 on ebay gone for £220 yet a few weeks before another one same condition for £285

Suffered a few times myself from an under value of items I have sold, but I almost felt guilty with a ridiculous bargain I got a few month back. An audio book brand new, unopened £2.50 easily worth £20 it even had the price tag on it for £23 when it arrived

The way pay days fall and season pays a massive part on ebay I find also the time the listing ends

Agree but then it's the punters getting carried away.
