Yep I thought I'd won it!! Slept like a baby....but then again I thought it went too high.....too high for me though..not someone else. Good and bad points for eSnipe but as Paul says, it's the element of suprise! I think communication is the best way of not bidding up prices. JSM610 and I have emailed each other, to check out each others intent on an item. I think this works well. A good example was John's 366 the other day. $2800? I think. It could have easily gone over $5000 if there wasn't some communication. And why shouldn't we pick up a bargain every once in a while? I can't win everything and I'd rather not push up the prices for the sake of competition. There will be more around, maybe at a higher price, but I might have more money then? It all comes around, goes around. I know we'll all meet up someday at some huge Rickenbacker show........well maybe that is just a pipe dream! |

That great Rickenbacker Show in the Sky... BTW, I did win the amp, at a nice low price, too, while I was in the middle of my morning commute. Score another one for eSnipe. |

I like anchov-e best. But not with jalapenos. |

Indeed not...as a Balinese once told me in the midst of his admonishment against eating turtle meat and 'lawar' (pork and pig's blood mixture) at the same sitting: "You will out non-stop"... |

I wouldn't be sitting. I'd be running. With my feet, that is. Out. Non-stop. |
