I saw the $400 also. Guess if they wanted more there would have been a reserve on the listing. I looked at it before it was sold, did not take note of the buy it now price. Someone got a smoking good deal.

I'm still kicking myself over a recent auction where TWO weaver jacks sold for $20. I forgot about the deadline until it was too late to bid.

Sometimes great deals can be had on EBay. But you have to look and be there at the right time. I call it luck.
I bought a rusted up tight window riser for my 24 T Coupe. I saw it and bid $1.75. The guy wanted 25 dollars. Nobody bid but me. The add stated it may not be repaired and maybe parts only.
I got it for the $1.75.
I restored it and it works great. Been to a lot of meets and never saw one or one for sale except the so called junk one I bought on EBay.

A couple months ago I bought a full set of Model T Keystone reamers in its wood case. It was the big 21 reamer set. They are like new. I got it for the 39.00 start price and free shipping. I was the only bidder. There are good deals out there

For over a week there has been an NOS Edison 14 spark plug on eBay with one bid of $19.95 with shipping of $4.95. Tonight I tuned in a minute and a half before the end of the auction and it was at $22.95. I entered my bid of $23.45 and hit the button, but I was spitting in the ocean. I don't know how many bids were submitted in those last few seconds, but it ended up like this.
I'm not a serious plug collector. I just wanted one more to make up a set to use for the coolness factor. No way am I going to spend that kind of dough for a single plug.
