A BARGAIN OR AN eRROR?

hELLO TO YOU ALL EBAY EXPERTS!
I have this problem, you see there is this item to bid starting from 1p but the buy it now if for 2p, ok, but this item is much much mre and ii think the seller was meant to put 2 grand (which is bit more relistic)on the buy it now but has put 2p by accident, so can i buy it for 2p.
Another thing thought some typed hime a question;
'hi there i know your buy it now price is over 2 grand . i have around 1700 pound to spend so if you dont sell it please give me a call?'
I dont know where the guy got 2k from but i can only see as 0.02p.
I point is can i buy it for 2p without any arguement about it?

    You could buy it buy the seller would most certainly pull out of the sale saying taht it was a genuine mistake.

    The chances are its an error but if you really want you can buy it and see what happens. you can send me the link if you like.#

    You might want to ask the seller a question and see what they have to say about it.

    HOLY COW, thats a bargain, send the tax disc back and your already in profit, very much doubt they will carry through with it, there seem to be no payment details, i hate auctions like this, what are you going to give him, 2x1p, 2p or give him the 2 grand and ask for £1999.98p change LMAO

    do you think that the fact that it says "sold sold sold sold sold sold sold sold sold sold sold sold sold sold sold sold sold sold sold sold sold sold"

    at the top is significant?!:D theres the answer to your question...

    nice try though!:)
    would have been bargain of the year!
