Inflated asking price

Look at this. Sure the picture is not that rare and the Benoist flying boat almost obliterated

There is another crazy person asking $100 for each single copy of "rare" Over the Front magazines.

Yeah, I saw those and wrote him a note about it a few days ago. The stuff he's put up for sale since is now merely outrageous.

Its a $15 postcard at best. There are some sellers/scam artists who are trying to find that one fool with these kinds of auctions. They are like those Nigerian scam artists who spam millions of email accounts trying to get some greedy and foolish mark to help them deposit millions of imaginary dollars in a U.S. bank account by telling them they can keep a percentage. All they need to do is catch one fool who does not know their prices are silly exagerations and they have made a huge profit.

Well, these sellers can ask whatever they want to, but it's unlikely that these items are going to sell. When I'm selling books I always search and see what other folks are asking and I see the same overpriced items sitting unpurchased month after month. Let's face it; we WWI fans are MUCH to bright for that!
