But no one is forcing you to buy those bad deals. So
take the good ones
and leave the rest. That's how you "win" on E-bay.

I totally agree with Joe. There are some nice bargains to be had and some
truly
awful crap. So far I think I'm breaking even on the bargain and crap score.
As the
Ebay novelty wears off I've learnt to more choosy in what I buy.
Over time you learn who are the good guys, the re-sellers, collectors or
enthusiasts
making an honest living, and the bad guys who just jump on the band wagon and
push up the prices.
If you really want something there are lots of places to look besides Ebay.
