I'm looking for a new modem for my Amiga, so EBay is an obvious place to look.
I've found a seller with a container load of modems to sell and he's offering them at a starting price of £20, about half retail. Each one is listed individually, so if EBayers used a little common sense, they could each get one at that price.
However, the thrill of bidding seems to cause some people lose all their common sense and they outbid and outbid each other til the price approaches the retail price (sometimes exceeding it). How can these people be so stupid?
The seller has clearly indicated a willingness to accept £20 on hundreds of the bloody things. Why don't those stupid people simply find the next unbidded item and make their mark on it. There's plenty to go around. I've posted this in case anyone here is in this market. If so, let's use a bit of common eh?
Cheers,
JaX
