Hmmm this would make an interesting debate piece...

They obviously did their research on price.

"the starting price is a steal."

Ah yeah, if it was BIN then "maybe".

It's an undeniable fact that those are some great headphones, however, that pricetag is hard to digest...

I'm gonna private message the seller to buy it now @ $3000

In my experience, this is a fundamental mistake with eBay. The seller needs more trust in the community to pick it up and artificially drive the price up.

Actually I find, for whatever reason, that high traffic items like this surely will be, should start low (say, $50) and allow people to get invested on the item. No reserves, no buy it nows -- all of those seem to kill the impulse to place *any* bid.

I don't think Drew will agree on a private sale for $3k when he has put it up for bidding with no 'Buy Now' option on eBay. Oh well, good luck.

Only hope I have is that they don't fall in the wrong hands and deteriorate then never see the market again.

I'll make an offer Mr. Drew can't refuse. I am roll'n in the dough right now so to speak.

Hahahah. Sorry, just couldn't help laughing. Well, good for you.

Besides, I don't even think it is legal (from eBays point of view) to arrange a sale outside the bidding. At least not for the seller.

It's against ebay policy, I think. But I will admit I have successfully done it in the past...

Oh come on, even I saw this last night before it was posted and you know I don't search for Grado headphones.

I am no expert on E-Bay policy, but selling items outside the auction is done all the time for cars, motorcycles, and such. Needless to say, I hope Drew does NOT sell them outright as it will be entertaining to see how far up they go!
