I'll try to make it brief.

PROS:

~$500 Giclee print on canvas. Bought it for a dollar. Shipping was reasonable.

A LITTLE WEIRD:

Seller only has feedback from 3 buyers. Hasn't been selling long. Only has a "7 day return policy."

I just won the auction, so I guess it's a little late to be having second thoughts. Am I about to get hosed?

Just rubbed me as one of those "too good to be true" sort of things. As the only bidder, I was sort of wondering "Why the berkeley isn't anyone else bidding on this?"

Wiki's entry on Giclees is pretty accurate:

I've won a bunch of dollar items. Sometimes nobody is paying attention.

Just how much can you get hosed for a buck?

I bought the BEST PRINTER EVAR for .99 plus $20 shipping. The guy did have like 89 million feedbacks though.

It's eBay. There's 2x as many sellers as buyers and it gets worse everyday. eBay will be dead (bankrupt) within 2 years if they don't start un-changing policies, quicker if they lose all these lawsuits...
