My current custom hopper auction is at opening bid and there are less than 2 days to go... (URL) a 4536 blue hopper I found rattling around that's surplus to requirements. I put it up starting at a buck just to see what the market says these are (...) (25 years ago, 9-Feb-00, to lugnet.market.auction)

Larry, just a quick question. After your auction ends, would you be willing to part with additional "sets" of your hopper at the same price as the auction's closing (subject to parts availability, of course)? -- William A. Swanberg CPT, SC (...) (25 years ago, 10-Feb-00, to lugnet.market.auction)

(...) Potentially. Most people build additional copies from their own parts assortments (sometimes in more than one color), which I think is swell. However right now I have 4 built up and those have to last me (I want to always have one "something" (...) (25 years ago, 12-Feb-00, to lugnet.market.auction)

(...) I may list MORE of my auctions to end during eBay maintenance... quoting from the listing: ((URL) don't plan on sniping this one. The auction end time is during an eBay scheduled maintenance period. You're better off with fire and forget bids. (25 years ago, 12-Feb-00, to lugnet.market.auction)

(...) Well, I THINK it doesn't start exactly at 12:00:00.00000 but instead at a somewhat random time which is fairly close but not exactly that time. So a sniper has to "guess lucky" or his snipe may be too late (or, tactically, too early). But I (...) (25 years ago, 12-Feb-00, to lugnet.market.auction)

I think that that ending time may be in error. As the high bidder going into the maintenance period, I was of course anxious to see the results after eBay came back up. I went to the site about 10 PM (which is 5 AM PST, sometimes living in Korea has (...) (25 years ago, 13-Feb-00, to lugnet.market.auction)
