Ebay prices seem "insane in the membrane."

[Ballyhoo]

what am I missing here? $1800 for a holy Grail torch coral two heads? He does not even list the size and diameter. I guess why I'm disappointed is I would love to find beautiful torch coral online at a reasonable price smaller, like smaller ones and grow them overtime but it's pretty discouraging when online sellers are charging such exorbitant fees. I guess you have to go to local buyers only? Online is not a place to get good deals apparently? Or maybe I have to go to craigslist if I wanna find a really good deal. I bought my holy Grail coral at LCS which spans 4 inches and two heads for $550 (attachments) easily the same that this one is going for $1800! Tell me why my $550 coral would not be as nice as this $1800 one listed on ebay? I guess moral of story is to stay away from eBay. They're crazy expensive and do not even provide a description other than WSWIG. Which means nothing because there's no way you can look at something and know what it size is.. That's the only thing I can think.

Ebay is full of sellers hoping for that "sucker is born every minute" buyer to come along. You also have to check the shipping on the auctions as well. I've seen shipping quotes as high as $200 for 'overnight' priority shipping.
