I wonder if I am the only one who rolls my eyes when I read eBay
advertising posts which read something like "price still only $x... or
40% of retail cost... and 3 days to go". Some people even sound really

days before the auction ends has absolutely nothing to do with what it
finally goes for.

THis is just one of many reasons I no longer use eBay.
