The bidders look legit based on feedback and % of bids with this seller.
I paid an absurd amount of $ to have a $25 GE set shipped to me by C&F, I had been looking for it for years and I wasn't going to have it get busted.  |
I paid $25 more than the $100 counter offer I received for the Sylvania I was interested in. Then when the transportation plans got screwed up I paid another $300 for excellent service. I think my set is pretty uncommon; but fortunately so is interest in it. After getting a CRT rebuilt to convert it to the model I wanted and making a new bezel to go on the cabinet from the model I wanted I'll be getting pretty close to this.
But, if the same bidder won a different set for a similarly excessive amount then they must have money to burn and motive beyond my comprehension.
