yeah but that only works if you have nothing to do all day but watch auctions and bid on them. i'm on ebay for a max of 5 minutes a day, so if I see somethin, I'm not gunna come back to it, i bid on it. if i don't win, i didn't really need it
as a seller it's annoying as hell when you have no clue your product is going to tell because there are 0 bids until 2 minutes left. it would drive me nuts

That's why if you are buying, you see what time the auction ends, and stop by your computer at that time. If you want it, you will make the effort to walk away from your TV at a certain time.
Do the same thing as a seller. Just don't look at it til it sells. If it don't sell, then you didn't really need it sold.

80% of the electronics on e-bay is stolen... or so i've heard
why would i want to contribute to crime in america? that's why i have 1 purchase, and it's the biggest waste of $7 i ever made. ebay is a huge waste of time, anything that looks like a good deal really isn't
except for... well.... my item :)

Shyt, you are on crack. I buy everything off of eBay. Screw it if its stolen, I really don't care, that means its cheaper for me. I get all of my stereo equipment on eBay. This is what I'm purchasing in a couple weeks:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2412591809&category=6290
haha yeah right. No, really, these are what I'm buying:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2412457962&category=38649
$489 - Originally $799. Brand new (stolen perhaps, but nonetheless not out of box), full manufacturer warranty.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3020404043&category=14946
$229 - Originally over $400. Brand new, not sure about warranty because they don't offer manufacturer's name. The stats show it's a decent one, and I'm not looking for perfection.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3020212061&category=18797
$347 - Retails $749. Brand new, full manufacturer's warranty.
I'll take pics once I get everything set up. I already have my subs and other speakers. I'm basically getting this at about half price, cause eBay rules.

you're giving in to the russian mafia. around my parts they steal cards, piece 'em and sell 'em at auctions... it's a great way to get a cheap car, but it's stolen nonetheless man
i know damn well the guy i bought this clie from stole it from Fry's Electronics. He got over $4,000 stuff from it and sold it for over $3,000 on ebay.
i stole a dvd burner and about 70 dvds. he burns anime dvds and sells them on ebay, 1 a week for $20 each, they ALWAYS sell.

I don't care if I'm giving in to Saddam. If he's selling cheap shit on ebay, I'm gonna buy it.

Does she sell weed, too? It'd be nice to have a dead chick selling me chronic. I still can't find any here. I've been approached by a few hoodlums selling schwag, but damnit if I want to smoke dirt I'll scoop some off the ground and roll it myself.
