Sure does pay to shop wisely! Actually some good deals can be got from
eBay, but research is needed in order to obtain the right pricing. I
always start looking from 2 weeks to 1 month ahead of time. The
"impulse" buyers are who get in trouble, and the ones who cant stand
being outbid (the gotta havits). When I seen the book listed, I simply
did a Google search for the books title and the author. I found it for
sale, retail, at about $7.50 with the company still publishing it.
Matter of fact, I have one on back order from a dealer here in Ohio. The
other day, I got a teriffic deal on two good, working, LCR meters. I got
a Leader LCR bridge that looked and worked like brand new for about
$40.00 I believe and a General radio Digi-Bridge LCR meter for about
$45.00 working perfectly. I've seen the Leader sell for about $450.00
and the Digi-Bridge for up to $750.00 at used equipment dealers like
Tucker Electronics and other dealers.

Great example of why I "don't do eBay" anymore. Seen this many times.

Subject: [Amps] Amazing ebay auction.
I thought I'd seen it all until this auction. There was a transformer <br>and coil book that auctioned for $52.00, link below. This book is still <br>in print, and sells for about $7.50 new several places =) I couldn't <br>resist watching this and waiting to see how much it would go for. If <br>there's any others who want a copy for $50.00, I'd be glad to get it for <br>them! Hi Hi<br><br>Auction; <br>http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2495455582&ssPageName=ADME:B:WN:US:1<br><br>Item number: 2495455582<br>_______________________________________________<br>Amps mailing list<br>Amps@contesting.com<br>http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/amps<br>
