This same sort of thing has happened several other times. Just a few minutes of googling has located the same item for a much lower price than on ebay.

Am I the only one who does this before making a bid???

More and more lately I’ve been noticing big price differences even between eBay and Amazon…but even more so compared to other online etailers.

Of course there are people like me who like to exploit this. 🙂

On the other hand, if you can find obscure or badly listed items on eBay you often can get a pretty good deal on them.
