i find it hard to buy something on ebay. it just is not competitive versus buying from discounter. I tried to buy a dell pc for about a month but always got over bid. I finally bought one from dell direct , discount, free shipping , extras much cheaper than any ebay offers. Transportation on ebay turn deals that look good to negative deals. for example looking for some old dvd's price may seem competitive then go to shipping and they want $10. to ship a dvd. off to discount store shipping is a couple of dollars if charged. Same looking for led flash lights, prices competitive go to shipping and over $12. Prices seem to be lost leader and seller making up profits in shipping charges. However, it is a good source to check before buying anything , i did get all my sound equipment there a few years back fifty per cent cheaper than at discount stores.
