i dont know why y'all are complaining.try to see things from a nutral prospective.if a seller has to put a reserve on an auction,ebay gets richer.if a seller starts the bidding higher,ebay gets richer.i know there are alot of unscrupoulous sellers out there,i have been screwed many times myself.most sellers put their parts out there to sell them.so if somebody offers them a fair price for an item they should have the right to sell it.most ebay bidders want to aquire parts for next to nothing.if i pay 200.00 for a part i cant sell it for 9.99.and the more the seller has to pay ebay,the more he needs to make off the part.when you are looking at something you are interested it is best to call the seller and ask questions it will also give you a better idea of who you are dealing with.i am slightly biased towards the sellers point of view cause i am a seller and a hobbiest.i have had to pull auctions cause nobody was bidding the item up anywhere close to the amount i had invested in the part and i cant afford to lose money.can any of you afford to give away some of the parts you invested alot of your hard earned money on?some of the big guys can afford to take i hit,as for me,,,i have to work..
