 I wonder why someone doesn't make a reissue?

 My guess would be those are shill bids and that he won his own pot. Those units are not that hard to come by.

 Vinnie,I thought of that to but they are all high feedback bids.If they were 2 to 5 feedbacks,those are more like the shill bids. I doubt that's a shill but I could be mistaken.

 Seller states only sounds right with this pot. What a load of BS.

 That's just a clarostat pot isn't it Mikey? No way it should cost that much to find a replacement should it? Might take a while to find the right value, but that's about it. Can't explain the high feedback, but I am curious why the first bidder put in three other bids on top of his own?

 Does a Marantz 7c sound that good that make them that valuable?
