I ran across an
ebay auction
This guy sales jerry cans for almost $1000 per Pcs and has already sold 11!!!!
Are they made from gold? Do they heal from AIDS/cancer?
What´s so special with this jerry cans he can asks $1000 for one ?!?!

If you click on the "11 Sold" you can see that they were sold for $69.99 - still too pricey in my book when I can buy em at the local ranch supply store for $30. He must have changed the price after selling those. I bet he was trying to type $99.99 but put in an extra 9 by mistake.

Well housil, this may sound morbid, but mebbe the ebay seller is counting on the price of gas everywhere sky-rocketing if things escalate in the middle-east with Israel and Hamas. Very dangerous and grave situation there and some folks will take advantage of any potential crisis to make a buck, wheter they've thought it through or not.

You are right, it´s "just" $69.99 there... But that auction is odd at all
isn´t it?

Hi,
I've seen the same thing with some connectors I wanted to buy. They were sold about $4, the normal price in US and one day when I visited the eBay shop, the price was someting like $120 each!
One week later, the price was back to $4, certainly the seller made a typo.
