Anyone else think this auction for a Campagnolo 50th group is a bit fishy? The seller is: _cobra1998black_ (http://ebay.com/<blah> d=7175308395&frm=284) . One of the bidders who is running up the price is: _jason_cobra_black_ (http://ebay.com/<blah> black&iid=7175308395&f rm=272) with zero feedback. The bidder IDs may be just a coincidence, but it seems too odd to believe. If the seller is a list member, I look forward to the response. Lou Deeter, Orlando FL Well, it certainly does seem very strange, and if I were that current high bidder, I'd cancel my bid, but for other reasons. That's an incomplete, used group - worth, what, maybe $700-900 typically? No specifications are given, (looks like 170 mm cranks maybe), mediocre pictures. Or has there been some sudden inflation in 50th groups that I missed? Greg "whoa!" Parker Ann Arbor, Michigan
