They either fell off a truck or the seller meant $4000 for both!
I'd stay away from that one!

Hmm, $400 for one, $750 for both. Someone bought them with a BIN. I hope they didn't get cheated.
I suppose we'll never know. Unless it was someone here that bought them...

"Huminia" is Latin for "oops."

Something else not quite right there...item location listed in FL, but the seller's most recent feedback (for another Ric Bass) lists the location as Madrid.

Low feedback seller offering fire-sale prices to a low-feedback buyer....
Smells like a con.
eBay, after all, is THE way to clear "exceptional" merchandise.
How made some terrific deals on pristine stuff along with a few BAAAD apples along the way there.
After a while you develop a sense of internet "smell", and this one has me holding my nose.
Why not at least QUADRUPLE your money and advertise the 2 separately at $500 BIN each?
