This guy has had this and another Wagner Mini-Bat for sale for years. Why? Sure it's $75 to $100 overpriced, but in the amount of time they've been available, I'm pretty surprised no one has pulled the trigger. Any comments?

Posted By: <b>Mike H</b><p>I love mini bats and have been after a Wagner for years, but I will not over pay by 50% of the value to acquire one. They aren't that scarce. This particular dealer has insane prices for all of his items and I would rather watch him pay the fees than encourage him by purchasing something. It's like the antique dealers who have a shop that is like a museum because nobody touches anything due the the rediculous prices.

Posted By: <b>Mark</b><p>I agree... I have observed this seller for quite some time, and have never understood his motives. I guess he must sell something once in a blue moon, but most of his stuff seems to sit around indefinitely. His pricing is almost double what it should be, across the board.

Posted By: <b>Joseph</b><p>I have purchased a couple of interesting pieces from this seller, at 1/3 to 1/2 his asking price. After an item has sat around for a bit, you should think of his asking prices as a starting point...

Posted By: <b>Mark Steinberg</b><p>If that's the case, I wonder why he just doesn't list them as Buy It Now (Or Best Offer). He doesn't have to accept the lowball offers. I bet he would sell lots more this way. His inventory never seems to change...
