Integration with something like streetprices.com, so you know what going
NEW price is.
I'm puzzled when people don't realize you can buy something NEW for less
than a bid price.
This is something that really drives me crazy. This isn't simply a problem
with eBay either, I frequently see this on Craigslist for the stuff I
monitor it for.
I recently ran into just this issue at a Camera store that takes
consignments. They had a very nice used book on Paper Negatives I was
interested in. I almost bought it, but couldn't bring myself to pay what
they wanted. Then I learned you could not only get the book new still, but
that it was on Amazon for 2/5ths what the store wanted. Needless to say a
new copy of the book is sitting on my desk at this moment.
