Why do eBay buyers do this?
Why? This pedal goes for less new from Toyz, MF, AMS, Sam Ash, and tons more places!
And why do people advertising Fulltone pedals for sale note "signed by Mike Fuller"? ALL Fulltone pedals are signed by Mike!
Just curious!

The better question is why are people stupid enough to bid on it? Why pay more for a used pedal than you can get the same thing brand new for?
So many pedals, so little time...

it's the auction mentality. I MUST HAVE IT. doesn't matter what it cost. also, instant gratification on the BIN auctions.
anyway, if it costs more, it must be better right?

Only if it's painted orange with creme colored knobs since that has been recognized as the best sounding color combination.

The winner is from Japan, and you bet he can count... It can sometimes be much cheaper to buy it on eBAy (including shipping) than to go to a Japanese musicshop. If you can avoid customs, it definately is much cheaper.
