I wondered the same thing, so I contacted the seller asking if there was a price that might buy it now. What I got back was I have no idea at this time..... Hmmmm.... If you put a reserve on something you know what your outright price would be. The rest is just greed setting in...

smells like it could be one of those where the reserve is way high, knowing it won't get there just to see what it gets bid up to.

no cases? so nothing is CIB?

Looks like it's the CDs, manuals, and case inserts. Just no physical cases, which isn't a big deal... except for the double-cases, like Vasteel.

I think its a giant deal actually.  How many of us have kept our music cd collections in one of these binders?  They get scratches and scuffs on them too easily.  I'd steer clear of this auction altogether, but that's just my opinion.

I also think this listing is shady. I saw this list 2 days prior as a buy now with free shipping. It sold for $240 buy now on the 15th. Then was relisted 2 days later with a reserve! Smh.

I saw this too and thought how good of condition would the cds be in being stuck in the binder for all this time. The felt in the binders dies over time and causes fine particle dust that create scratches on the disk, I know this from experience, thankfully not my turbo cds but audio cds. I would also steer clear if the same thing was just up there for 240 BIN and suddenly back with a reserve??? something smells fishy...and my Ex-wife is not even around.

I asked the seller why it was being relisted and if he's running a scam: not surprisingly, his responses were rather pissy (a few good lulz were had, where he suggested I think before typing and him essentially calling me a big meanie).  His reason was that there was an error in the original listing, even though the descriptions are nearly identical and the only real error I can see being that he set the BIN too low.
