Ebay Newbie Made Life Tougher for Ebayer



Ebay Item number: 7542264595

Looks like a newbie (only 5 feedbacks) and another Ebayer got into a
bidding war, ended up over $22 when you include the shipping. I bid on
and bought the same manual a year ago to replace the tattered one I
already had, and I think I paid less than half that, postage included.

I bought a few unusual and unique old germanium transistors on Ebay and
figured they were worth a couple bucks apiece max, so I bid a bit high,
because at the time I didn't know if there would be another opportunity
to get them (later it turned out that the seller did have several more
auctions of the same). Some idiot luser with zero feedbacks bid up the
price almost to my max, so I ended up paying a lot more than the later
auctions. This luser later had a negative 3 feedbacks, the SOB won a
few bids, then NPB'd the sellers. I'm beginning to think that he might
have been a shill for some seller.

Yeah, yeah, I know. Like Jimmy Buffet said, "..but I know, it's my own
damn fault." Parrot head!
