I'm not sure who the guy is that bought that can but he has sure been spending tons of money lately on cans. Are these cans really worth what they have been bringing here lately on the bay?

I see the can brought 201.50 Way to much $$$$ for that can!!! I wonder who it is that bought it. I wish Ebay would show Usernames for the winning bidder. It seems like alot of cans have been bought latley by somebody with that feedback score????

That is nothing new, It happens with signs too, 1 person will appear for a few weeks buying up most everything at whatever it cost to "Feed a Habit" then they disappear for a while. Remember it takes at least 2 to get a price that high

I did not get the us oil can on ebay. What is it about ebay,when you loose the bid you want that item even more? Or you wish you had deeper pockets. Thanks again

I have also noticed certain buyers that all of a sudden appear on Ebay and buying everything they can for whatever it costs. I recall one 5 or 6 years ago that didn't need to wait until the end to bid. He would leave a bid early on with a limit that must have been 3 or 4 times higher than anyone was likely to bid because I don't recall anyone ever out bidding him. People would drop out and he would win it. Then as fast as he appeared, he was gone. I guess the new wore off and he lost interest.
