TBH I don't think ebay is the best tool for working out the going rate.

I think quite the opposite for this kind of thing , where values are largely unknown ;) . If I was selling my Bell , Echo & JT lids I'd put em on ebay :)

Fair-do's :)
There can be a few freaky results on there is all so I'd maybe look at the average from a few sales.

Post by: deeman on December 18, 2011, 10:56 AM: I dont think ebays an accurate guide for prices,no rhyme or reason to it.something might make £100 one week and the same item goes for half the next week.shill bidding,sniper software and the like dont help.Always end up paying over the odds on the bay.never any bargains.Anybody unsure on price should just put their stuff on here,people will soon tell them if they are out.simple supply and demand situation.What irritates me is seeing stuff on the bay which clearly belongs to radsters(usernames usually a giveaway!)and no sign of the stuff advertised here first. :idiot2:
