Why do I even bother looking?

The pursuit of a bargain... The chance that you'll get a great
price... :-)

Then there's always the amusement factor to consider too...

Depending what you're looking for you can still find some deals on
eBay. It does take patience... and a bit of creativity with your
searches to weed out the deals like you mentioned here...

eBay has turned into a world wide flea market type thing. There are
the folks who bring in the trunk load of boxes of what they consider
"junk" to sell, and there are the guys with the nice fold up tents
there to hussle a buck out of anyone they can selling junk...

There was this fella name P.T. Barnum who had a theory... ;-)
