I agree Evan, the extra's do add to its value, but
not by significant
amounts reflected in the opening bid price. ? ?What he should've done was
started at $1,000 and let bids go nuts with tons of bids and it would've
gotten a lot of traffic and attention.
Or put it up for $50K, get no bids, but get plenty of eyes looking at
it, with perhaps a later private sale for an undisclosed amount off
Ebay later.
Not an insane tactic - it works with high end collectibles and antiques.
