Please someone put me out of my misery and explain why this modern tin keeps getting relisted at a £225 starting price ?

He's a newby to ebay and all his stuff is priced very high.

More importantly though, I suspect he just doesn't know the difference between 2 random tins.

Oh well he does now. Hope he doesn't take offence.

In the guys defence, if you don't have a knowledge of tins, it is made to link turn of the century and he/she assumes it is.

If you contacted every seller with ridiculous prices, it would be a full time job.

I've lost track of the amount of times I've let the moronic Indian dealers know what I thought of their fantasy prices, but I get the last laugh when I see the sign listed for the 50th time.

OH NO! He's started a meme.

Another newby has him beat with a price of only £275.

On that last one, if you were gonna ask £275 for an item you might have more than one photo of the item and include a bit more text than 'an old Cadburys chocolate tin'. Really!!?

Wow, so it is. He's just trying to make £225 look like a good price. Don't suppose ebay will care, they're getting paid twice to list the same item. His listing fees must be more than this tin is worth.

They're both still there, but now this one has appeared.

Definitely a different tin this time and from an account with a high star rating.

More reasonable too. Free postage.

Thank god for that Hilbert...........when I saw your post I thought perhaps one had sold.

Still looks suss but perhaps the new seller has just been fooled by the other idiots prices ?
