(...) Ugly ? Now what would you call someone who has won a bargain on ebay and then resells it on a fixed-price site for an excessive amount, now that's ugly ! There are sharks in every pool. (...)

(...) I've done it. Nothing to hide. It's just part of the ugliness that can be eBay. I bid over my dial-up home connection. So my response time isn't always guaranteed. I will sometimes snipe with 30, 20, or even 10 seconds to go. With the lag (...) (24 years ago, 19-Nov-02, to lugnet.market.auction, lugnet.market.theory)

(...) Not everyone snipes, but lots of people do, including me :^) I don't know why a lot of people get upset at sniping, it's within the rules and if you can't be present at an auction end, just get one of the automated sniping programs to work for (...)

Moved to .theory in an attempt to not upset Kevin (and because .auction is only for auction ANNOUNCEMENTS) Hey I snipe. Everyone snipes. Sniping is the game you must play on ebay. 9/10 times I must snipe to win. I have a cable (cox) ISP and can (...) (24 years ago, 19-Nov-02, to lugnet.market.theory)

(...) Oh, it's not nearly as exciting as you might think it is. It's simply my old digital camera, which, due to an unfortunate interaction with a concrete driveway, no longer functions when the AC power is not plugged in. It is 1 megapixel, with a (...)

I have an item (I won't mention what it is until I get confirmation that it's legal to sell on .b-s-t) that isn't Lego, but would be very handy for Lego projects. Would it be okay to post about it on the .b-s-t newsgroup, or is that strictly for (...) (24 years ago, 12-Nov-02, to lugnet.market.theory)
