Record Price WW2-EK2 on eBay

[streptile]

May i just add 'fella's, that here in Australia, there is a one in twenty chance that the person standing next to you is an IMMIGRANT or their parent was. We are a totally multicultural society today. I, am third generation German/English, so enough of the "Australians" bit ok.

Australians, sheesh. So sensitive.

I'm just surprised that it got by the E Bay police. I just tried to sell a luftschultz helmet there. Although I didn't display the decal, they still pulled my ad and warned me that I was in violation of their policies.

Guess I know where I'm going to sell my EK2s when the time comes.

1 in 20? You're way off:

According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, in mid-2006 there were 4,956,863 residents who were born outside Australia, representing 24% of the total population

Better make that 1 in 4

Australians, sheesh. So sensitive.

You would have thought they'd be able to take a joke by now - I mean, just look at the platypus.


Australians are well known for being rather sensitive. It is usually put down to the fact that they are our largest neighbour but we beat them at most sports we care to play.

Did you have a buyer contact you and ask to sell it directly? A common very dirty tactic on Ebay is for someone to report things as offensive and the same person who reported the item will then try to buy it directly from the seller after it is pulled for a fraction of value. I stopped even trying to list nice items for this reason.

An outragious lie!
Australia's sporting achievements are unparalleled!

Wonder if I can sneak my EK's past the ebay censors ?

Lool, crazy Australians.
Better buy an Übergröße EK2

Four years ago, I sold at ebay Spain an ek2 marked 25 for 610 euros (USD.801.- actual change), two crazy guys bidding.
I thought it was a joke.
I was amazed when got the money in my hands!!
