Default $2461.88 tire and rim-ebay

There is a 1930-1931 tire and rims for sale on ebay, opening bid is $1875, buy it now price is $2461.88.

I sent a question to the seller "I have a rare 1930-1931 coupon for $2461. can I apply it to this purchase?"

His response..."yep"

I knew this one had to be for fun.

Don't forget about the $4 per tire disposal fee for getting rid of the tire once you receive the gold plated wheel. Rod

Don't waste your time e-mailing him. I e-mailed and asked him about it for fun as I just picked up 2 nice rims for $25 a piece and he said he is doing it for attention.

Yes, I looked in his store and probably a lot others did too. Although, after 2 pages of his stuff I got bored and come back here.

I find his business practices less than professional. I personally would not consider doing business with a man of his principles. Wayne

I looked at his completed auctions over the last 15 days, 6,165 auctions completed. I looked at the first 1000 items and none of them sold. He must be having a lot of fun getting a lot of attention!!!

Here is what I am looking at.
Below is a link to his closed auctions for the last 15 days, 16,053 items. EBay will only list the last 10,000 closed items. These 10,000 items have been listed from April 22 to April 30th. So that is at least 1,000 items per day. I looked at the first 5 pages with 200 per page and he has sold 3 items out of 1000 closed auctions, and those 3 sold on April 30 and April 29. If you look at his feedback it shows that he has feedback of 606 positive for the last 12 months.

He currently has 7,700 active auctions!!!
He must be having a lot of fun getting a lot of attention!!!
