my question is: what causes this to sell for $77 and the exact same record sell for $40 20 minutes prior?

Cause one was probably international? Why buy it from Canada and pay extra for shipping rather than buying domestic?

I assume you're moaning about your copy that you had on eBay that didn't go for as much?

It was sniped, so maybe that bidder was sniped on the $40 auction and said "Fuck it" and hastily bid $8,000 in an eBay rage, thus winning said record for $77.

I love to be internet detective and detect things.

And helping.

There are many reasons and for $20 I'll tell you some of them. In the long run the $20 will be nothing to how much more you will make.

reasonable shipping at least!

I agree! Apparently, he send it out from Japan.

He display the postage to USA for $ 4 by regulation of ebay, but, actually, cost $ 8.

So (please pay $ 8. It is not $4). Because the postage from Japan takes $ 8 atleast.

His "special mention" looks like a horribly structured poem.

he probably made a mistake with a zero. And postage from Japan costs more. I just sold a bunch of records on ebay and it cost me about $14 to send airmail for 1 lp to the US. I misquoted because I didn't factor in that the 2 sheets of protecting cardboard would weigh so much.

Were you the person from Japan selling a bunch of Screeching Weasel records?

That's a goddamn great deal!

Also, I just want to add that it's funny to see the sponsored links on that ebay page...there's a "FUCK" DVD, a "I FUCK ON THE FIRST DATE" mousepad, and a "STFU" car air fresheners.

Brilliant.
