I just got a Space Marine megaforce from thewarstore @ $140.00 USD.

I know, i know. 20% off retail is great.

But...On ebay this guy had an auction and it was set for $75.00 USD! Yes, the new 2006 SM Megaforce! Holy Shit!

I waited for the auction time to go by...and then when i checked to make my bid to my despair the last big had gone up to $137.00 USD.

Not worth shippping + $137.00 USD, so i got it for $143.95 USD @ TheWarStore.

Damn that ruined my ...my month. Stupid high bidders. :evil:

Wait, let me get this straight. You're annoyed because somebody sold an item you wanted at a drastically low price to somebody else at a reasonable price?

That price increase is the entire rationale for sellers-by-auction. If that never happened eBay would not exist.

Would you have instead preferred that you made a bid before your own was exceeded? That would have been the only difference of outcome.

If you want to know about excellent eBay deals, here's a rather good one I saw before.

I don't know about you, but this had me this close to breaking into my Xbox 360 accounts the day before I was going to buy one. There was a Buy It Now price on there a week ago too.

I'm not, either. But this almost made me into one.
