crowley/kennedy

Post by bcullen »

Looking at this ebay item and then further looking at the other items for sale I am confused with the selling technique. There are 2 sets of pipes 2 early martin guitars 2 early gibson 2 wheatstones and lots of other goodies. They have low bidding and all seem to have a $2.500 buy now . Maybe someone could explain whats going on ? I am not familiar with this type of selling

My guess is he has been hacked. The store says he is in England, but the pipe listings say the location is in California.

I wouldn't touch this stuff if I were wearing a hazmat suit! Too bad... he has some nice stuff listed.

I'm sorry I ever sold that Crowley set.

First, because I miss it. Second, because of all the ebay rubbish it has been used for.

I sold it 10 years ago, and I can't believe it still pops up. Can I charge commission for all the reuse of my photos?? :-?

Buy it back it's a bargain. They might throw in some steak knives and a pair of socks :wink:
