$4.99 shipping on a $15,000 watch seems reasonable 馃槻

I saw an auction where the cost of the watch was $ 300,000. and the delivery was $ 2. Or so.

There have been multiple sales of the A384 Shadow for $5500-6200, so it's not just the one. Poor bastard with his silly asking prices probably has no idea ::facepalm1::

Posted this in the "Laughable for sale threads" thread, but I think it belongs here. This one really made me LOL:

Just came across a super deal on Rolex Forums:

Oh yeah priced to sell! (At approx 2x market rate? To who?!?!)

I saw that and even got a notification from eBay that the seller was offering a huuuuge discount - of $400 off!
I have to think that it's a typo and he meant $1,999.99 but there are some people....

Yeah, looks like you were right; the seller's original asking price for the misprint bezel appears was itself a misprint/typo. The asking price has now dropped from US $19,999.99 to $1,495.00

So you can bid on this at a starting price of $24,000 plus 25% buyers fee and taxes 馃槻

or you can just buy a full set anywhere else for $18,200 (also too much in my opinion).
