    price gouging by sellers.

    some people cant be bothered to check around for better prices so they buy the first one they see, so the price gougers win big.

    Probably not all, but a lot of chancers yes. Be surprised how many people buy the first one they see.

    Some of these chancers are making a good markup.

    Look at the new ga2100. Supply is short right now with casio underestimating the demand for it. I'm sure that the excitement will die down and supply will catch up but for now on fleabay they are selling for outrageous prices. Two and three times MSRP. Actually selling too, not just listed at crazy prices.

    yeah saw that yet the gd x6900 is doing way lower mean been trying to sell one and the price new and other places is some times anywhere from a ton to two and half suppose to be new yet I could not even get £89 or £79 and not even £69 had to go auction at a punchy £45 start and still no bids yet and the 5600 mod just did not sell drop it down to what it cost me in parts and still did not get a taker.

    so took the bracelet off and order a 5610 bezel for it and am looking for a 5610 reverse for it ..

    and have bought an adaptor set for the 5600 so I can see if wearing the large size on the nato makes it more comfortable as it will lift it up higher and if not will see if it sells better as a brass bezel on a nato

    Looks legit.

    So many variations of the GA, GD that this one might seem a little weird but looks original casio to me.
