See, I never found stuff on eBay to be cheap.
Whatever I have found on eBay ended up being about as much as something new thanks to the auctions going up and up.

So I put in a "fair" bid for a used item, and then the seller starts jacking up the price with all these different accounts. I figure fine, fuck him. He will have to pay the ebay fee and relist the item. Then some savvy shopper comes in at the last minute and buys the item.
I'm not sad about lose the auction. I'm mad because if people its causing inflation to the item I want to buy. Bid smart and make it a buyers market, pls. Ebay just isn't what it once was. You could get stuff for cheap. Now so many people have turned buying and selling your shit into a business. It was a lot better when ebay was person to person selling. Or you could buy dutch lots of shit. |
