A fool and his money are easily parted. For those who do a little research first, money can be saved. I'm currently seeing people pay more for second hand lenses on eBay than you can buy new if you shop around. :roll:

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

I know. I watch a number of auctions and the prices achieved by some defy belief. I think that many people get caught up in auction fever. I have lost loads of bids because I set myself tough price rules.

Yip, I've been watching game bundles go for a fortune just cos people get excited about COD MW2 - I know it holds it's value, but basic sense needs to be applied in a lot of cases :roll:

£1.09 for a grow at home carrot. You'd have to be an idiot to not realise you can buy them cheaper. Oh well, I'm hoping for some eBay idiocy myself later on in the week when I list my GTX275 and COD:MW2(Xbox) :lol:

Well with the crazy mentality of some buyers I think you may be in luck.
