No wonder it's a private auction:

I saw this. Sad. I hadn't been aware there was a crew member named "Mike Cell".

Nah....this isn't a fake Neil....read the description carefully, it's handsigned by a certain "Neil Armstorng"

I like the second photo though where the sticker says "7,95" which comes more closely to the real value of this "beauty".

Yeah, criminal. The seller took time to show seven different photos of the book, but only one fuzzy photo of the bogus signatures. I've sent him an e-mail alerting him to what he's doing, but often any reply will be defensive & demand proof why I think they are bogus. It's at $999 and has reached its reserve in a private auction, so if the seller doesn't coooperate, little can be done.

and all of this action $899 worth happened in less than 2 minutes, or am I looking at this wrong?

Yeah, it went from $100 to $999 in less than 2 minutes yesterday with no activity since - maybe indicates some shill bidding to show interest & to get some real bidders involved. Since it's reached its reserve, the next "real" bidder gets it.

Maybe there was an earthquake when they signed...
