It's a ploy to get you to look at the seller's other auctions.

Interesting....Massachusetts USA seller with Canadian currency...?

That's simply because the OP, telemaster000, is viewing the page from Canada. So Ebay offer him the US price and a Canadian conversion.

...But. Am I the only one who's seeing that page smothered in black and with half the lettering missing? I wonder if there is some sort of malfunction happening - because all the seller's other items appear normal - and for normal prices. Including DR strings.

telemaster000, have you thought of sending the seller a question to ask about it? He may be in a better position to give answers than us...

Cheers - C
