Adam,

Then again when people see those crazy prices out on eBay,
they get encouraged to dig out more Datsun parts out of their
garage and post them for sale on eBay.

At times you'll find some GREAT bargains, other times you wonder
what someone was thinking.

I sold a few items that "went higher than expected", yet other
stuff went lower than I would have thought. Take a look at my
current auctions as they all started at $1 (except when I slipped
and had some start at $5). Well, there is a STILL A VERY NICE
softop & frame on eBay for $10! I hope to get more than that for
it.

Of a few things that went a little higher than expected... well,
it made for a nice Donation to the Fireman's fund, Red Cross,
and American Cancer Society.

So next time you feel like smacking someone in the head as they
have over bided on something... feel free.

Sigh, on the fellow who bided up the Brake Caliper Kit to $125
(I have no idea why he did that), I thought cool $100 towards
American Cancer Society (Sadly they are hurting for donations as
people are sending their money to other groups at the moment).
Guess what, the buyer never paid for the caliper kit. No, I
didn't have the extra $100 to send into ACS.
