Hi All,
Speaking of "delusional"--the seller of this item is--but if he finds a fish, the fish is even more so !
eBay # 291122298049 "Matched set" of "used" sapphire needles for $150.00 !! Bad focus on photo's, but they "look shot" to me ! Ron Rich

Wherever he's from he is certainly in a world of his own.
Sold my 440 yesterday for $450. Admittedly, I didn't re-chrome it, but then it wasn't pitted or scratched, so why would I ?

Anyone interested? Its easy to fix, but this person would not do it so he could make more money, his loss is your gain! A New other no less. Certainly is not used.

Works sometimes. Turns on wants to grab record, but doesn't. It just needs a tune up. Very easy fix.
“Will Work with tune up.”
"Item condition: New other"

I'll be generous and say you'd only be paying five hundred quid for three Elvis Presley graphics, but in truth, I reckon it would be a lot more.

But maybe I'm being unkind as, "the price includes the cost of the licence to reproduce and sell the images."

Hi Doghouse,
Since I have no idea how much a "quid" is worth, I sure have no idea about 500 quid ??
Also, I guess he has revised his description, as I see no reference to "reproduction rights" ? ( wonder what that's worth??)

A "quid" is English slang for a pound, but I think you really were aware of that...

Here's an alternative. "A nicker" is old Cockney slang for a pound and "half a nicker" would have been ten shillings, or in today's money 50p.

Hmm.. I thought it a bit pony, but probably worth more than one.
Explanation for our US cousins.
To call something "a bit pony" is Cockney rhyming slang, short for pony and trap, meaning C**p.
A "pony" in monitory terms, is twenty-five quid.
A "monkey" is £500.
Isn't English a hard language?
