Probably 6 months since I last looked at Ebay, but just looked and saw this. Interesting.

Some of the really great Dominican shells were that thick. A good wood shop can put them back on a lathe and thin them out from the inside. Solid Caribbean mahogany bongo shells are hard to come by these days.

Never go by how something "looks".
If they didn't sell at $229.00, must be a reason.
