CapeSams is right on with that. I remember when Ed Poore and his kid did the same at the Old Bourne's Auctions in Hyannis buying up everthing at inflated bids and making the market bear prices for plugs that were totally none realistic. I tried to deal with him once when he wanted me to trade him one of my Creek Chub Underwater Gar minnow plugs in perfect condition. He wanted to give me an old beat to death Fishmaster Bass-Aqua w/ no box for a plug worth near 700.00! I was insulted and told him so. I told him that he insulted my intelligence and left. Later when I acquired the first Stan Gibbs plug ever made I found out that Stan had only offered it to two people, myself and Ed. He told Ed the price, which was 300.00. Stan Told me Ed told him it wasn't worth anywhere near that price and made a counter offer. Stan decided that it would go to me at that moment when Ed was still talking even if I couldn't afford $300.00.
