As for the going price, I just picked up a D-211 on German EBAY for 13 Euros

Duncan,
Nice!! Happy Birthday also!

I'm just offended that he quoted our forums to reinforce his gouging. BUt of course he can ask whatever he wants. Maybe when he doesn't hit the 1.5 k he'll lower his price.

It's funny how in his email he says celebrities might buy it. That'd be the day where you see A-list celebritites toting a D-211. They'd rather have their ipod.

 

[Filburt]

This is something like the third time he's put this up. I think the first time he had it up for $2500, but maybe it has been $1500 every time...

The sad part is he probably one of the headfi member and he uses a Duncan's resorce for his benefit. I'm glad that Duncan was be able to help out.

Yup, that Ebay auction has been discussed earlier in the following thread:

http://www6.head-fi.org/forums/showt...ighlight=d-211

Walter Chan, Head-Fi member (shamefully) aka waltchan has the deluded idea that the D-211 is worth $1500. He had originally posted that same auction a few months earlier asking for $2500. After a few days and no suckers to take on his auction, he dropped the price to $2000. With 24 hrs left in the original auction and still no fools biting, he dropped the price to $1500 which ended up not selling. Now this idiot tries again to see if he can make the sell for $1500

.

The D-211 that Waltie Chan is selling he originally bought for $120 on Ebay from Ebay seller chrisnh911. Yes, I was watching that auction when chrisnh911 has several fully boxed D-211 with all papers but no ac mains and headphones for sale on Ebay. Another member here besides waltchan bought a D-211 from that auction. Waltie had bought two units from chrisnh911, this is one of the two he owns that he's trying to pawn off for $1500. On the link below is page 2 of chrishnh911's Ebay feedback where you see waltchan (aka doitwaltc) has left him feedback for the two d-211 he has bought.

I know it's great to make a profit, but man you have to draw the line somewhere. What the hell is he thinking asking for such a ridiculous and ******** up price for something that's worth not more than $120 which is what he had paid for it originally.

What's up with all the bashing. Damn...

I already received an e-mail from a buyer who may be interested in buying the D-211 from me for $1,500. He is one of Bruce Springsteen's friends (won't mention his name). So, for anybody complaining that I am out of my minds, you need to stop worrying because I know that it will sell.

Good day to you all...

Well, if you get the money fair enough to you, but in the 'real' (ie non-showbiz) world it is pure insanity...

Maybe I should put up the remnants of my collection on ebay as a job lot... hmm, what do i have, Mint, boxed D303 with all accessories, two working BP2EX batteries, wireless remote, D88, D211, D111, D808, D777, AZ6832, D465, and all the lower end models I have kicking around... Hmm, gotta be worth $5,000

...I wouldn't have the audacity though

Just as an aside - does Bruce's friend know that you picked it up for only $120 and are making a 1250% profit??
