I'm sorry, but I just can't take it any longer.

I have run into so many people that think that eBay is the only place to buy 914-related items. Over and over again, I see people grossly overpaying for items that are readily available from others sources for much less.

Case in point, Jack Hole Plugs. I can buy these things all day long for $1.86 each. The two geniuses bidding on these have got them to over $11 for a pair. Plus, they are going to pay over $4 in shipping and handling, plus a .60 delivery confirmation fee (WTF is that?)

This makes me want to contact the bidders and tell them that they are being stupid. Or, makes me want to start selling Jack Hole Plugs on eBay.

If you were a buyer and had no where else to access parts then ebay is probably a great source, or you can buy from AA or PP or GPR or......
There are allot of things that sell on ebay for allot more than they should, but that is the buyers choice. They determine if it is to much for them to spend not you.
Maybe they bought an item that you paid $100.00 for and they were able to buy it on ebay for $20.00. Are you going to start informing the sellers on ebay that they sold the item to cheap?
