Yep, no one is more experienced than you, right? And your bid is the benchmark, right? Try not to be to ****ed when you get outbid! Boggling. dxAce Michigan USA |

It's hopeless Scott. I just wanted to share a good laugh, and he had to go

Well it was interesting and good for a chuckle -- 29 bids on a SB-104A for
$1000 + But DXace has a point -- you can ask whatever you want - on e-bay and hamfests If someone wants it they will pay "insane" prices -- so what ?? Think its called free enterprise -- hooray fer that. At the next Hamfest when a guy quotes e-bay prices -- reply we ain't on e-bay I disagree with "it will inflate the prices" Smart sellers and buyers know better Or should "Inexperienced bidders" are just that -- ebay not withstanding The thing about e-bay is it is world wide -- thousands of potential bidders and some one who has coveted an item for years will come rising up out the woodwork Remember -- money is no object with some bidders in an auction, have never seen that at a hamfest - generally it is a very poor place to sell things. I offered a rare ham book at a hamfest for $25 -- guy sed I'll give you 5 -- I replied which Chapter do you want (;-) Sold on e-bay for $28 Case Closed -- LC "Scott Dorsey" wrote in message ...
