On 10-23-05 the top bid on this steel was $3151.04. In previous listing 10-15-05 top bid was $5604.00. Reserve not met in either case. Why the sharp contrast in price, and what is a "normal" price??? What does this guy want? I haven't a clue. :

It's ended, you can find it by searching "completed items". I think the first round collected more and higher bids since it was mistakenly advertised as Bud Isaacs'. Also, could be that some of the potential bidders bailed out on the second time since they learned that their highest bid won't meet the reserve. But it's ebay, you'll never know.

Bigsby owners the world over are gnashing their teeth over this.

I was counting on the proceeds from my Bigsby buying me a waterfront lake house, a new bass boat, and a tow vehicle in a couple of years.
