Will be interesting to see what this goes for. Would be a LOT more if it was pre-75 with normal bumpers...

Likely fake bidding to get interest.
I bet it doesn't make the reserve........

Makes me wonder about my LE w/ 48k original miles

Fake bidding for sure!
It took me awhile to understand the fake bidding concept until I bid on a couple items my self and saw how fast the price ratcheted-up towards the end of the auction.
I purchased my 914 from Ebay...but I also over paid for it too, unfortunately.

Lesson learned.

Notice how it's bid up to $29,800.00 with approx 30 min to go...
I bet the reserve is 30k and the seller has had it bid up close hoping to snag a buyer at the last minute...won't work......

It's a shame how ebay has changed, I had been buying stuff off it since early '99, but rarely even go there anymore. It's morphed from an individual's auction site to being saturated with repetitive ads that hold no interest. One of the last things I got (if not the last) from ebay was the 914. Actually negotiated outside of the site, saved myself and the seller some money.

Too bad.
