    I think the timing is perfect to sell a machine with an Olymic theme.

    Good Luck!

    I was searching the eBay listings tonight and I came across this one. I didn't even notice the name of the seller before I clicked on the video and the second I started watching it, I recognized that voice, LOL! I left ya a comment on YouTube.

    That's a very cool machine. Considering what I've been seeing some of these Model Bs going for lately, you should do very well with this one. It seems all I've seen lately listed on eBay is "Don't know much about it" or "Not working" or "I don't know how these work." and the pictures are of basket case machines. The nice ones like yours (which are few and far between) have been selling for good money.

    The video is a nice touch.

    Can you outbid yourself on US eBay??

    I thought if you bid again it only increased your Max Bid, (i.e. you can up your Max but it wouldn't bid up your own bid if it was highest bid at the time)

    at least that's the way it works with UK ebay, i think

    you can jackup your own bid, but only by the regular increments.

    say you bid 100.25 when high bid was much lower then the 2nd highest guy bidding bid 100.00.

    you are still a quarter over his bid, but if bidding increments are a dollar each time, if you place a higher bid it will go to 101.00

    Well if I was interested and bidding, which I am not, I would really be impressed with the you tube video. At least the buyer knows the machine works. Some of these you do not even know if all of the parts are their or if all of the parts are their whether or not they are broken.

    Much nicer to at least know it works than have to guess.

    WOW!

    Up to $155.50 with 41 bids and there is still more than a day to go!! With that much interest, I wonder how many snipes are set to enter a bid in the last few seconds?

    It looks like you are going to do well on this auction.

    That n***n bidder is hell bent on owning Mopar's machine.

    I personaly think this machine is worth well over $200.00. If I hadn't just dropped a chunk on money on that Power Flash, I'd probably be interested in this. I entered a couple of bids on it but stopped after $55.00 realizing I'd never own it for that price.
