Good luck with that... ebay is filled with overpriced items so you'll get a very large thread. No one's going to browse the whole thread to see if the item they're looking at is in there.
The "Lens Wanted" thread has the same problem. Which seller is going to browse all 23 pages to see if someone is looking to buy their lens? A possibility to search in one thread would make it more feasible. |

Yes, and Yes.
I suspect that gokevincameras is a seller who understands supply and demand, and has a good mixture of semi-rare items and patience. Eventually someone will come along who wants a very particular item and will buy it at any price, and Kevin will get a sale. It's a sales strategy just like any other, but this one is low volume, low effort, and not particularly "dependable" for income like medium or high volume standard sales.
Now this on the other hand:

I knew who the seller was before I clicked the link . You have to wonder how many of those "minty" lenses the guy actually sells. Maybe he counts on people being accustomed to DSLR lens prices to buy his stuff? It might work for him.

No need to wonder... you can see the titles & prices of his previous sales just by checking his feedback.
Short answer: He sells quite a number of them!

Oh I really agree with the comments that too many sellers on flea bay overprice their items, theres currently a canon F1 which has been on that site for months now with the price (BIN) dropping each time its relisted. surely the seller has spent more on ebay site fees now than if he'd asked a realistic price in the first place!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you compare this to a very common adapter like C/Y - EOS, it is only $50 more.
