Now this is a post I can enjoy!
Ward could explain to this seller where to put the decimals.
But actually I got more and more excited about the mitt with every sentence in the description. This mitt should go directly into the hall of fame!

right next to the $100,000 mantle glove

Available only to professionals?? I bought the same mitt in the early 90's for my son at a local sporting goods store. nice mitt but......$1200.??

I don't think it is a math problem as much as it is a fantasy/delusion problem.

This seller needs a therapist, not a math professor.

If he strikes out on eBay, he may have a promising career on Madison Avenue or as a screen writer in Hollywood.

I wish I had a phony Ebay account to bid on this and get his hopes up

Perhaps that's what the glove is worth to the seller. It may not be worth that to ANYONE ELSE IN THE WORLD, but that's how much it's worth to the seller.

However, that is no excuse for not recognizing the glove market (or any market research).

nothing like an $820 markup

nice eye gator, that is insane, maybe he is related to wagy35, that was a low blow sorry but 599.99 for a pro1000h, i the gold tag worth 400 dollars, hey bob can you get me one of those, so i can sell my pro1000h for only 500.00

I guess im just as bad as this guy i buy gloves and mark up the price but not 800 dollars.
