If I remember rightly from my eBay trading days, this is a trick whereby increasing the price beyond what anyone would pay allows you to keep a long-standing listing going if you're temporarily out of stock. Pulling the listing and re-listing it again would lose the valuable search engine advantages that have been accrued on that particular URL, from eBay and from Google.

Protium Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 I bet he could find some stock pretty quickly if anyone pressed the BIN on them Quote
spacey Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 If someone made some that are thick enough to go on a nice leather ended strap, I would pay anything. All the ones I have tried do not have enough thread for a premium strap, in other words one that holds the bass still. Quote
