<<Just hope it is not to late to capture the seasonal sales.>> I used the EGGS auction for the first time last night to buy a cheapo video card so that I can run a second monitor off my 'puter. Yesterday was pretty boring with this one and I fear we will continue to be pinned around $20 today due to options expiry. Too bad general triple witching volatility doesn't seem to extend to this one. However, UBID and AMZN bidding up in premarket. Yawn. Anaxagoras

I've been a mail order customer of Surplus Direct for a few years starting back when it was called Surplus Software. I was asked to buy a 33.6kpbs modem as a Christmas gift, so I went online to egghead.com. I had no trouble locating a Boca Research modem for $29.95. Completing the transaction was fast & easy. 2 day shipment was an extra $5+. It arrived yesterday safe and sound. I know someone posted here a few days ago and was unhappy with their experience, so I wanted to post my experience so that perhaps we can conclude that the bad experience was the exception, not the rule. Someone bought up a bunch of EGGS yesterday morning. By the end of the day, the shorts were getting NOWHERE ! Lets hope they run away and EGGS can continue up and over $23. Regards, Chris
