 wonder if they put an extra 0 in price by accident or is he really asking 18k.

 Even $1800 would be way too much.

 Seems the ad has been pulled. I have a beautiful example of this exact 1902 pancake and even I don't value it that high.

 I think it was a typo. When you follow the link, it says "This listing was ended by the seller because there was an error in the listing."

They relisted it for $999: https://www.ebay.com/itm/RARE-Original-Antique-GE-General-Electric-Pancake-12-Fan-Cast-Iron-Brass/174647838678?hash=item28a9d287d6:g:rYAAAOSwg0FgMv5d

Pancakes are nice and desirable fans but at $1500, it should be tip top. I remember Kim sold a nice 1899 for less than that and I believe it was ready to go.

 There have been a bunch of crappy cakes on eBay for lots of money recently. 
Cakes are great, but for >$1,000, it should be perfect.
