This is another one of those auctions that makes you wonder what's going on. I had this in my watch since it was close to me and I could pick it up, but when I saw what it had went up to overnight I just shook my head. I already have a really nice example of the can so it's just something to watch now and see where the ridiculous price ends!

I was watching an earlier version of that can a few weeks ago, can ended up selling in excess of $850.00

Sometimes it's hard to make sense out of the prices.

if you have 829 feedback on eBay, then you know how the system works and consequently do not bid this way legitimately trying to win an auction.

$2-$4 bid increments & 1-2 seconds inbetween bids! Good thing ebay has a minimum bid or they'd be doing $0.15 ea time.
