Overpriced lamps on eBay!

[Autumn]

*edit

Any lamp is fair game now, not just the beatles and harley lamps. This thread has grown far beyond my expectations! 0.0

I really dont understand why these are always listed for ridiculous amounts. I see them all the time for $100 buy it now. I have a harley lamp and I want to sell it because I dont like it. Someone locally tried to sell me a beatles lamp for $100. Are these people nuts? Why do they all seem to list them for stupidly high prices?

Anyways I thought it would be fun to see who can find the most over priced harley davidson or beatles submarine lamp.

I am setting the bar really high.

Speaking Frankly I think this thread is in poor taste and a unrepresentative of the community as a whole. 

It's one thing to find really ridiculous and humorous auctions that is going to make someone laugh.

It's another thing when it's used between people who know one another and it stirs up drama.

I'll leave the thread here for the humor of it all, but please keep the petty drama outside of the community.

This is supposed to be a fun place and the only reason this thread has any merit is to elicit humor.

I guess that means mine is worth 500 smackers!

[WeeboTech]

It's only worth what someone else is willing to spend!

[Dr. WHAT?!]

mine too Don!  and we have bases and caps so is our worth more?! lol I think this guy tried a few years back selling these for about the same price didn't work out too well. I even think some people here reemed him a new one about the price but whatever it's his time wasted.
