The torch is worth around $5.00.

$240 is for the birds!

Aren't there some OSHA guidelines about blowtorch abuse?

[rusty]

Well, I do have to admit ...I have never seen one of those before...

But then again, I don't use hard drugs....

Did you see his other listings?  I have a feeling the artist in me is emerging, well if that stuff sells it will.

If you look at this persons closed auctions you see that only 1 in 3 items ever sell. And most of those under $20. Once in a while they make a decent score.
Having put on ebay auctions I call tell you anything that sells for under 20 is a total loss.
Even if you like to work for free by the time all is said and done you will lose money over low priced auction. Unless you are a true ebay expert and take every single advantage.
Even then you have to do thousands of them to buy 2 cups of coffee.
