Hey @ShawnR, your link doesn't take me anyplace specific - just adds by many different people for many different things. Can you provide another way to get there?
 
The plot thickens.

If I open the link using Kijiji, I get a broad hit of almost everything from massages to candles.

If I open the link using Chrome I get Wayne's listings.

If anything, you would expect Kijiji to be the more accurate of the two. Really odd.

Ive run across Wayne before. He seems to a full time reseller.
 
Same here. I click anywhere on the link and all ads go to Hamilton ads. The guy has 31 ads running for equipment. Don't know what else to tell you

Try this one, then look at his other ads

 
He usually has some neat stuff, maybe he is an auction guy but my thoughts were his prices are high and he doesn't mind waiting for someone with the $$$.

I solved the riddle but ended up with more riddles. See my previous post.

Is Wayne the guy we discussed earlier?
 
Actually, yes he is. See below for a link to that discussion.

Some guys here think he is ok.

He uses is name in the auctions so you can see him bidding. If WayneJ is winning you know the price is below market lol

I've not been to his shop but he bought something from me once, pleasant enough transaction and I've not heard anything bad about him.

Of course it smarts if he's the only other buyer and you know he's just going to resell it as he bids it up, but that's the open market. Economically speaking he's adding liquidity -i.e. his participation lets the seller sell for closer to market. That's what I tell myself as there is no point letting it upset as I can't do anything about it (and I've bought the odd thing for resale as well so mustn't call the kettle black)
