$1600?!? You Have Got to be Kidding Me!

[58limited]

I bought this same set, less the booklet, for about $35 on ebay two years ago! Mine has a hard leather covered carrying case, not a soft home made looking cloth case like the one in the auction. I doubt the booklet I'm missing is worth the $1565 price difference.

They're called flyover states for a reason.

Sorry just kidding.

I wonder what happens when it doesn't sell for $1600. Think he'll repost it for $1550? No wait, this is eBay. He'll probably repost it for $1700..

The link is not working....

So what is this you are talking about???

Link is working for me. The item is a 1940s Servel salesman's demo kit complete with small fridge that you can insert picture cards showing how the fridge can be loaded with food, different shelf combos, etc.

hmmm

Aren't auctions supposed to start low and depending on the intrest of the item the bidders bid the amount up?
