'66 Caravel on Ebay

[airstreamcaravel]

Now you don't think it was something like that do you?

That would be bad Karma

But very possible.

Having had to lose a similar Caravel ... It would be worth that much (almost)
to me to replace it.

A decent condition Caravel unpolished can fetch 8-9K throw in a 2K+ polishing job, axle, tires, flooring, etc etc etc ... your almost there.

airstreamcaravel,

I won't try to judge what a particular coach is "worth", especially on e-bay where it is hard to clearly see condition. I have on occasion hazarded a guess about where an auction will wind up and have almost always guessed low.

But, to me, this auction stinks. Even if the price were not extraordinarily high by my admittedly cheapskate standards, the bidding up of price by a phantom (if, as I belieive is the case) invalidates the result. It is even possible that both the high bidders are puppets and this coach may be back on ebay soon, as the infamous WYWO pincushion was, with some lame-ass explanation why.

Hate to be so cynical, but when the champagne corks start flying after these auctions, I've just got to pipe up.

I do fear you are correct sir, I hope not, time will tell the tale.
