Someone with more money than sense?

eBay feeding frenzy?

If you've done your research you'll see this sort of quite often on eBay :D

So....do your research before commiting to buy on eBay....

Maybe the expensive one was an original new-old-stock item? I'd certainly pay more for a mint original one than a repro. Have you ever seen a repro anything that fits / looks right / lasts more than 6 months? :shock:

We are talking Lotus and Lucas here. Would the originals meet these expectations? :wink:
