What is with these prices on vintage washers these days on eBay?

You could buy a new FL washer and dryer for their buy it now price-you could go to the laundramat for a few years on their buy it now price.You could buy MANY used "swap shop" washers and dryers for their prices-skip that one.No one will buy it for his weird prices--then--off to the KRUSHER!Hope it doesn't end that way.

Not much feedback, someone probably thinking they have a goldmine.

I've never bid for anything on E-bay (although I've used the Buy It Now option numerous times), nor have I ever sold anything there; Is it possible people whose asking prices are outrageous think "Well, I'll try asking for thousands of dollars and if it doesn't sell, I'll resubmit it again later with a more reasonable asking price".

Some buyers, for whom cost is no object, might pay what the rest of us would consider an astronomical price to get exactly what they want. I suppose some sellers hope they'll snag one of those buyers.

These are crazy times we're living in, Brothers & Sister

Kids in cafes attacked by tigers, World leaders assassinated via Osama who should be long dead. Easy Spins for THREE and a half THOUSAND DOLLARS!!!!!

The Easy is a mess~

First of all, it's BOL: examine the faucet: it has the valve to hold water in the spinner--no separate drain control, just one "handle" to drain the wash tub.
2nd, Seeing the Wash and Spin arms yanked to their "ON" position is not at all promising.
3rd, The top and the lids are all ready crushed--Sheesh!

But that is the BOL version of my beloved Aunt Margaret's TOL Easy, one of the chief delights of my childhood. And now for a moment of sanity: No one is going to buy that washing machine.
