+The Cache Raiders Posted May 2, 2004 Share Posted May 2, 2004 Check out this awesome GPS! It is only at $25.00 and comes with a stretch holster. Check it out at http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...3094613441&rd=1 It is an excellent deal! Quote Link to comment
coolclay Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 Bull sh*t it's only $25 its at $66 and the reserve price still hasn't been met. I hate reserve prices they are the stupidest thing ebay has ever come up with. People should just start the bidding at the lowest price they will except. I never bid on reserve price items, you have no idea how much it is so why bid, you don't buy something at a store without knowing how much something it is. Oh well! Quote Link to comment
+bons Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 Bull sh*t it's only $25 its at $66 and the reserve price still hasn't been met. I also hate reserve prices. And actually, it's up to $81 since there's and extra $15 to ship a package that weighs almost nothing. Quote Link to comment
thorin Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 By the time they reach the reserve add on shipping etc you're probably further ahead getting a store like CanadianTire to pricematch and give you 10% in CT money. I recently got them to pricematch $185 (they're reg is $199) plus I got $21 in CDN Tire money from them for my next purchase. It can be found out west for $164 (I think I saw that @ GPS Central) but I couldn't get any of my local CTs to pricematch an online retailer. Thorin Quote Link to comment
Suzy Q Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 FYI and good news...The same GPS is currently on sale at REI for $140.00. It's good news since the current bidding price is over $100.00 and still the reserve is not met! See attached link for REI sale: http://www.rei.com/online/store/ProductDis...gory_rn=4500600 Good hunting! ~Suzy Q Quote Link to comment
+bons Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 Amazon.com priced it at $117.94 for me with free shipping (assuming slow shipping is all you need). Quote Link to comment
coolclay Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 No offense but this guy's nuts I sure hope it doesn't sell and he has to list it again, it is at 117.50 with shipping and the reserve is still not met! Maybe he'll learn that he would get more bids if there was no reserve price. Doubtful however, if anyone out there decides to start selling on ebay remeber reserve prices are the biggest turn off for me and many others. I can't tell you how many items I haven't bid on because of a reserve price. Oh well! Quote Link to comment
+ShowStop Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 There's a sucker born every minute on E-Bay... Quote Link to comment
mires Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 yep. I'm ocasionally shoping for knifes and HiTech stuff on e-bay and in most cases prices are higher than on number of e-shops, but living oversieas I don't have luxury to choose where to shop Bottom line: not everyone that paying higher prices is a sucker Quote Link to comment
coolclay Posted May 5, 2004 Share Posted May 5, 2004 Good he didn't sell it but he did list it again, still with a reserve price, but maybe its lower this time. Quote Link to comment
+SBPhishy Posted May 5, 2004 Share Posted May 5, 2004 It's funny about reserve prices. I always just email the seller and ask what the reserve price is. They always tell me without hesitation. Then, I decide if I want it or not. I never understood reserves. They should just start the bidding at the minimum they will sell it for. Quote Link to comment
