It's quite amusing that there's actually a bid in too!

One of the strangest ebay auctions I've seen. I am really baffled at this one. High bids too! I read the entire listing out of pure bewilderment, then, to my horror, looked at the item location - it's the town I grew-up in!

Hmmm. I guess next time I need £400 I can dunk a recent copy of the Hobbit in water, then? I cannot see a way that this seller is honestly convinced they have a true first edition.


In this case, I don't see how they can claim it is a £12000 book, very dodgy, they have not posted on ebay that questions have been asked as well

I have tried reporting this Hobbit to Ebay as "Misleading Title" but I don't expect it will have any effect.
