Wow, thanks for posting that link. Now that is truly astounding. How
can Ebay allow such bidding to happen in a public place. Collectors
should not be allowed to perpetrate that kind of bidding action and run
up the price. It's just terrible to think that Ebay actually allowed
the final bidder to pay more for the radio than the next-to-the-last
bidder.

And when Mike Maghakian bids, the auction should end right then and there. After
all, the radio can't possibly be worth more than what he is willing to pay,
right?

Shame on eBay.
