Ads (mainly ebay) for non-working, missing pieces, etc. items? Am I out of touch?


Having been into audio and high end audio for many years, I have owned much and because of that sold much.  Seemingly a growing thing, mainly on ebay, are items for sale that have problems...something missing,  or not working or damaged.  And yes, an owner should try to sell anything they like, but some of the ads are for too much $ for an item that has problems that make that item not worth what is being asked.

Has the world/intelligence/market changed that much, am I just out of touch with the current mindset of humans?  Perhaps my 1975 Rabbit VW that isn't running and that smashed up front-passenger side is ......ohhhhhhh worth maybe 10 grand?   
     

       
 
whatjd
you want to get rid of junk , list it on ebay.

if you in fact have a VW, i bet you could list it on there......but the fees would kill you

just curious , you start a thread here that pertains to ebay???
The rabbit is long gone, traded it and some cash for a Bricklin.  Wanted an Edsel but could not find the Ranger hardtop in my price range.....but I still have my AMC Pacer that gets attention from all the Co-Eds. 


I believe most here are familiar with ebay, and the audience here is, I believe, a bit more.........ah, worldly?
