More than the old beer can? Two year old book, no photos, 3 day auction. Something seems amiss ....

$39 to $15,000? Must be quite a book!

If you look at the high bidders feedback you will see that one of the two items he has sold (or didn't sell since he got a neg for no sending it) is a Sigma Chi t shirt. He states that he is an active member. Looks like he is trying to keep the deep dark secrets of Sigma Chi from being sold to a non member.

Dang, and I thought frat houses were all about drinking.

The guy ought to put up a web site of all the book pages to get revenge on the bidders that sought to run up the price and make the book unsellable.

Great website. A few years there were many ebay sellers that sold easily-available-on-the-web cheat codes to computer games and similar common data that many naive buyers were unaware of.
Why couldn't someone print out the stuff on the website listed and sell it like the sellers that sell cheat codes for the computer games? Of course it would be a tough sell if the prank bidders mess it up like they did on this guy's auction.
