Halloween Cart BIN for $125

Recommended Posts

eBay Auction -- Item Number: 2904072357481?ff3=2&pub=5574883395&toolid=10001&campid=5336500554&customid=&item=290407235748&mpt=[CACHEBUSTER]

 

My initial thought was, "Not a terrible BIN price considering the crazy prices Halloween has been fetching." I recently nabbed a cart on eBay for $103.

 

Then I saw the infamous "You're hosed" face on the cart. I checked the description. No surprise there -- nothing mentioned about it being a reproduction.

 

Somebody is going to drop a Ben Franklin and his friends Jackson and Lincoln for a repro...... :x

This isn't Hozer himself though, right? This may just be some sucker who got duped and is trying to flip a repro he knows nothing about.

Yeah, I'm inclined to give the seller the benift of the doubt also. From their other auctions, it looks like this is a store that sells a number of video game stuff and they probaly have no real knowledge of what they are selling. They probaly got the game from someone, wasn't told it was a reproduction, and think it's real.

 

Remember, I had never heard of Hozer before I came to these boards -- I'm not a collector and I'm not really into the business. There are probaly a lot of buyers and gamers who have never heard of Hozer.

 

I'll send the seller a polite FYI to let him know it's a repro and see what happens.

Yup, don't know if this is Hozer's account. Probably not. All I know is that I would be unhappy to discover I spent this much on a repro.

He pulled it.

 

Yes he did, and you can thank me for that. :D

 

As I said I would, I sent the seller a quick note last night. He responded this morning saying:

 

Thank you for telling me this. I'll pull the auction. I'm a honest seller and don't want to cause any problems.

 

See, not everyone on EBay is there to screw you over. :)

Wow. I am really surprised. Well, good for him.

 

But I will add, he didn't have to, all he needed to do is to add to the description that it is a reproduction from Hozer.
