On a slightly different note, why do machinery
dealers who are now selling items with no reserve auctions on ebay quote
some ridiculous number to potential buyers when they are standing in the
shop? They will throw out a number of $1,500 and then sell it next week on
ebay for $800 (or less). This is when they know you found them through ebay,
BTW.
