Default Sportscat down pipe £2500 :-o

Could someone please explain to me why there's sportscat down pipes on eBay for £2500?!?!?!? I'm amazed and it seems that they have actually sold some too! I've been looking at getting one for my project classic I bought a few months ago and stumbled across them and I nearly fainted!!!!!

I spoke to a seller he said that they do that when the item is not in stock or they have a low stock of a item,Go figureSJ.

As above it is to do with not having stock they just increase the price to deter people from buying until they get more stock of them and if someone does buy one they will stock up again on the profits

Yeah, something to do with their history. So over price when out of stock.
