1928 Daily Express 19 Dec. 2/7 ‘Gazoomphing the sarker’ is a method of parting a rich man from his money. An article is auctioned over and over again, and the money bid each time is added to it.

1932 G. S. Moncrieff Café Bar xvii. 185 'Ere 'e is..parasitin' on people all day..and then 'e objects to a little gasumph!

1934 P. Allingham Cheapjack xv. 189 Grafters speak a language comprised of every possible type of slang... Quite a number of words are Yiddish. These include ‘gezumph’, which means to cheat or to overcharge.

1961 Daily Mail 25 Feb. 9/2 M.P.s had admitted that they had been ‘gazoomphed’ by fast-talking racketeers.

1969 P. Y. Carter Mr. Campion's Farthing xiii. 121 I've never known an offer from you that wasn't a gezumph.

1971 Guardian 8 Nov. 13/2 ‘Gazumping’—a system of profiteering by double selling and pushing prices up—is creeping into the property market... The word is car trade slang for selling to one buyer and then, as values rise, to a second buyer.

1971 Times 6 Dec. 4/1 A Bill to be presented to the Commons next week..would outlaw the raising of the price of a house before contracts are exchanged. The practice is known as ‘gazumping’.
