SI-- you know some of EBAY auctions are unlimited--the same items could be bought and sold a thousand times or more. You and I will be dead and these items will still be marketed--thats unlimited too me Jim, Very good point! One that I hadn't really considered, yet I can vouch for it personally. I've been an Ebay user longer than I've been a stockholder, and I've watched my very own items go back up for auction 2 or 3 times. Most recent example was Limited Edition Pokemon Card Boxes (if you don't know what they are, you obviously don't have kids! <G>). I sold one for $150, 2 weeks later it sold again for $300+, and I expect it to be listed again since prices just hit $450+! This has happened in the span of a month or so, and Ebay is getting a percentage each time it passes hands. Amazing. Jape
