Wow, $1300. Must be something to do with having Madonna in the title. Here's another one that's the same but it's only at $150

Good opportunity for more profit if you can get that one cheap

that fella doesn't have much of an idea.... poorly listed.... and it's pretty rooted by the sounds of it.

Well done Q. Nice to see someone have a win on eBay!

Dan · Post by **Dan** » Tue Feb 19, 2008 7:49 pm

All us ARSE's are gonna be scouring through garage sales every weekend now, lol

Quincy · Post by **Quincy** » Wed Feb 20, 2008 1:03 pm

haha, look out, it's addictive!! we normally get going about 8:30am, Mudgee is really easy to get around, generally 4-8 sales per weekend... now we are thinking of starting 7am, to get the worm....mind you, 9 times out of 10, you wish you'd stayed in bed, some of the stuff people try and sell is ridiculous... but then you score big time!!!

the bloke i bought it from, was aware it was in Madonnas videos, (not one but two!!), and he was umming and arring about ebay, said it was too much hassle.... hahaaar. the other thing is, he is one of my regular customers, (president of local union club), so i'm going to run into him sooner or later... how am i going to keep a straight face!?!??!!
