The reminder about the postage is a "revision" added AFTER the bids were placed, so presumably the bidders either didn't see the "postage" or intended to "pick up" if they won.

The sellers ID is fred costa: "COSTA" is the right word!

I believe he's violating ebay's policies with that one - he's basically trying to avoid paying the ebay fees... It's a mag/opt machine, so his price, while high is not absurd, but I wouldn't buy from someone playing those sorts of games.

Not a bad price (£350) if you take the 'Buy It Now' Price and the postage together. Its an NT3 and these are mighty rare beasts indeed. You will see loads of NT1's and the odd few NT2's but hardly any NT3's with magnetic record on them. Ive never seen one before but I knew they existed.

Not a bad price providing the Mag Record works perfectly and the machine is as good as he says.

But he's taking the P*** with the postage.

My opinion - way too high a price for this machine, magnetic record or not.

just seems a clever way to get the price up, if you realy want it then you will pay it
