KyleR Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 I wouldn't read into what has sold because if the price is changed in a listing, it doesn't reset the numbers sold. But it does seem strange that someone would do the typical price change by doubling the cost, it's usually adding a zero. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seriously think they are selling at £75 - 00 because people dont know any different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 (edited) Whenever I see something like that I just assume they are out of stock - change the price and no one buys, get some back in stock, lower the price. Save them deleting the item and re-listing etc. EDIT: But I prefer Vik's answer really Edited February 9, 2014 by Keyser Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
