What in the heck is the "GCREP" smoking?

Post by sloop_john_b »

About a week ago GCrep had two 1997's listed, a Fireglo, starting bid $1599, and a Jetglo, starting bid $1399.

Today I see that both these guitars have been relisted with a starting bid of $1999!!

Here are the links:

Jetglo: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=41439&item=7311553897&rd=1

You asked:
"GCRep,
This is ridiculous. Just a week ago this same guitar was listed with a starting bid of $1399. I was mildly interested but the price was a bit too high. Now you have relisted the same guitar with a starting bid of $1999! Really, this guitar is worth nowhere NEAR that high. Maybe $1200-$1300 at absolute most. Good luck selling it for $2k."

Response:
Hi and thanks for your input. 1997's are going up in value. Thanks, Chris

Yeah, first they give away the 325 C models practically, and then jackup the prices on '97s.
Makes sense.....not.

If you watch this sellers auction he doesn't do all that well. Hmmm wonder why?
