It's the funny thing about Ebay! There are pipes wildly overpriced, and pipes wildly underpriced, all the time.
The wildly overpriced sets sit on Ebay forever.
The wildly underpriced sets disappear instantly if they're Buy It Now.
They can instantly disappear too, if they're Auction, as soon as the sellers realise their true value. They get relisted at a higher price or sold off-Ebay.
The most informative Ebay sales are the Auctions with low Opening Bids that are allowed to run their full time. Only then can we see the bagpipes' value as perceived by the bidders.
