Would anyone agree with me its a bit much

I'd want that for that now. Consider the guy does them properly (BB is a proper place - they do what they do well), and he has to pay eBay fees, Paypal fees and VAT. For a nice one it has to be that much. He will be netting £20-£30 from that max.

People who like them will pay it. His 6k feedback will encourage them.

I must go visit them one day when I go back to Peterborough.  My mum was born in Holbeach,  many happy memories of going to see granny and Grandad there!

Oooh that must make mine worth £250 when I fit the new changeover bit!

[Parwaz7862]

Lmao
Russ is spot on! I was already laughing at the price and nearly died laughing at the description :P I would expect atleast a paragraph of a description for a £10 vacuum!

WOO YEH you'll get £100 more than I can with my DC41

So if I went straight to them it wouldn't be £89

I would expect not.

But like anything, paying cash, collecting and not burdening them with 11-13% in seller fees has to knock a shilling or two off.

Third party platforms are expensive to use. The costs of using them have to be passed along.

LOL @ the £200 DC18. I'd be reluctant to give a tenner for that.

Here is another one.

Must get my 03 up for sale!   

[beko1987]

Lol that's optimistic!

[Parwaz7862]

Lmao! I hope they mean £30!

[Dyson2000]

Dammit! Anyone remeber that 03 I found, does that mean its worth about £200
