I normally go by a rule not to post things I find on eBay in case somebody here is eye-ing it for a last second bid or something.
But this has been listed over and over for a very long time, and I even (very nicely) emailed the seller to tell him/her that Generation Bbs go for about $7 new at the whistle shop, but got no response. I bet it will be there forever. Dunno about anybody else, but I wouldn’t pay $21 for a run of the mill Gen Bb. And I’m almost positive it wouldn’t cost $5 to mail it, either.
You’re right. I have a Gen Bflat and I really like it but I wouldn’t pay $21.00 for it. For just a little bit more than that you can by a complete set. But someone who doesn’t know may pay the price.

Right enough, Ron. He probably won’t get the $21, that’s his sucker price, but no doubt some fool will come along and give him the $14 or a bit more.
I never cease to be amazed at the prices some idios will pay on eBay (or in a store or at a festival) when a few minutes work on line would save major bucks.
FWIW, I did a search about 2 weeks ago and couldn’t find that. Thanks for posting it, though. I just wish eBay links stayed active longer. I want to see it. LOL.
As long as he ships promptly, and ships what was purchased in the condition described, it makes perfect sense. After all, the buyer knew the costs up front, and chose to pay it. They have no cause to complain really.
It may be extremely overpriced, but I haven’t seen any indication of fraud or deceit.
