Just saw this on E-Bay. The price makes me suspicious.

If it was not a "local pickup" I would be a serious bidder.

Dang, it's 2-1/2 hours away from me. Otherwise I would have snapped it up at the $120 buy-it-now price. That option is now gone, because someone placed a bid.

I suspect that the bidder did the seller a favor, as it should bring well over $120. The location is convenient to Cleveland, Akron/Canton, and Youngstown. The I'm guessing that population of that area is 2-3 million.

BTW, did you see the sellers's description? "Band saw with new bands."

Yup, the bidding passed the $120 buy-it-now price in less than a day. Five more days to go.

Anyone care to hazard a guess on the final price? I'll go out on a limb and predict $275. The closest guess wins bragging rights!
