I wonder...what percentage of all ebay listings are bargains?


Another way to look at that - how many hours do you have to spend slogging thru the properly priced and overpriced items to find a "bargain"? If you have to spend too much time, it isn't a bargain.

And everybody has a different definition of what they consider a bargain, properly priced, and overpriced.

Au contraire mon frère. The thrill of the hunt! That feeling of victory when you do find that diamond in the rough. I sometimes think the anticipation and the acquisition is more satisfying and enjoyable than the collection itself.

To quote Star Trek:
After a time, you may find that having is not so pleasing a thing after all as wanting. It is not logical, but it is often true.
