    Yes... that one has been on eBay for a while now. I think the seller has a very unrealistic idea of the value here in the U.S. A half gauge machine with a built-in manual ball lifter would fetch a high price here, but certainly not anywhere near what he wants. Seeing that the item is located in Japan and being marketed to U.S. collectors, perhaps the BIN price was meant to be in Yen?


    Here are some of the pics for future reference:

    There is a fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."

    I thought the first one was crazy, but this is even better. By his own admission. it probably doesn't work. Doesn't he know there are dozens of Nishijins on ebay at any given time? Or is it some rare type that justifies such an absurd price?

    cool machine but nothing too special. all these auctions have been on YJA and the half gauge has been on there a loooong time. the prices on YJA are cheaper than eBay as well or at least the half gauge is.

    I hate this seller. He doesn't have anything he sells. After you foolishly buy from him, he buys the item from the real seller on JYA.
    Yeah, and he jacks the price up 3x or more.
    This dirt bag doesn't even bother to check if the item he is selling on Ebay, is still available on JYA.
    To me, selling something you do not own, nor have contracted to be an agent of the seller, is unethical.
    Oh, and reporting his behavior to Ebay falls on deaf ears.
    They couldn't care less.
    A potential for fraud, and they don't care.
