Title: I hope none of you are the rubes bidding on this...

Dainese Short Track Gloves 139.00 MSRP.

Dainese Short Track Gloves used current bid 4 days to go... 202.00!!!

He even has the MSRP listed in the listing.  PT Barnum was right.  Yikes!

Something rather strange about that one.

OT:  WTF does your height and weight have to do with your glove size?  That information isn't useful.

I have sold two old cell phones on fleabay for more than MSRP after using them for a year. I posted the MSRP and started the auction at $5, shipping included.

No telling what makes people bid things up to more than they're worth, but when I'm selling I'm not going to reject bids that I think are stupidly high.

I'm not faulting the seller.  I sent him a message and we've been joking about it back and forth.  He's amazed by it as well.

By the time it's done he could get almost 150% of Retail for these. LOL.

There is another pair of the same gloves (size L, though) right above that pair; with zero bids starting at $75.00... ??? Go figure...
