my dear friends .... what you have witnessed on ebay is what we call here in America sheer Ignorance!!!!
This guy does not have a clue what he has , just the fact that he has listed
almost every know designer he can think of , hoping to snag something
unfourtanly it doesn't work that way ,
In my humbel opion it is a piece of home made junk !!!!!! and is one of the biggest jokes played upon us . I don't think one person with a brain would give that clown $80,000 for that
piece of crap with out documentation. from a recognized source ....sorry clown maybe you have a little swamp lamp in Florida we could buy. check the joke out on ebay 220133562177

Not only is it $3,000 it is...
Not only is it $3,000 it is also pick-up only! Good luck dumbass!
