Default YIPE-Buyer Beware!!

Amazingly, it states that he ONLY HAS 1 LEFT. I am a firm believer that a person has a right to name his price on any item that he has for sale, but I must say that this is price gouging at its worst....

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Cub-Cadet-St...item46344329fe

I cannot imagine paying sales tax on it, too. However, he does offer free shipping!

EDIT: Uh, I just realized that this is Patton Acres. I cannot imagine this being a real price, as many of us have done business with Rich before. Surely a typing error?

I'd say, least one would think that the decimal is in the wrong place and should be $9.10

I have seen this more times than I have fingers and toes. Someone makes a post about it once a month or so.

There is something fishy going on with his ebay listings,
A while back I went to buy a small reasonably priced item on his ebay sight.
It said : He is not accepting purchases/best offers @ this time!
I didn't recognize the seller till I did some closer looking.
WTF? I've never purchased or done any dealings with him what so ever.
I only know that the guys here say he has parts, and treats them right.
I'm not exactly new to ebay with over 450 purchases and 100% feedback.
As it turned out, I found what I needed in better shape for less, so it all happened for the best.
I have no clue what is going on.

I don't know what is going either. I "assume" it is a TYPO. Like you George, use a little common sense, move on, & look else where.

He also changes the price to astro high so that he does not have to re-create the entire listing when he gets more stock on hand.

Pretty smart way to preserve all of the work it takes to create a listing like his.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
