I am falling out of my chair looking at some E-bay listings.... WHERE do these people come up with these prices!?!?

They are insane!

I came across one, that was a Zenith, I belive a year 97 SS, that had a starting bid of $19,999. And a Buy it now of $21,999! Are you kidding me?

I understand the Zenith might command a premium I saw some in the 12K ish range, which is understandable, but double that? But by far, the icing on the cake was the listing below, an 116520 for the begining bid of.... $92,000.

Hey, if anyone is interested in bidding on that watch, today only, I will sell you mine at 50% OFF!!!!! Yep, my used 116520 in great shape, Z series, is YOURS, for ONLY $46,000!!!!!!!

First come first serve! Who wants it!?

$4600 in aussie dollars about $4800 USD or in UK pounds it would be about $7000USD

One assumes it is a typo, easy to make a 10X math error in converting Yen to $. Actual asking price probably meant to be $9,200.
