my gear auction ending at about 930 still has no bids

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280323842336&sspagename=STRK%3AMESELX%3AIT&viewitem=

Locals pay no shipping for pickup. I just dont want to see it go for 99c and go through the hastle of shipping it.

I'd hate to see someone last minute jump in there and bid $.99. Personally, I'd end the auction and put it back up with a reserve until it sells. I guess it's a sign of the times that someone hasn't snatched that up.

I just dont want to deal with it. if one of you buys it for 99c and puts patience into reselling it.... fine by me.

listing is more expensive with the reserve, and it looks to be an item in not so high demand anyways

I was thinking about bidding the guy up to like $20 so you would at least get the shipping out of it but I have no use for a R cut 8.8 and I might get stuck with it if the current bidder isn't willing to go that high...

a fellow member is going to bid it up to 20, it will sell if anyone wants to buy it for more.

Yeah, I'd try Craigslist. I am surprised thought though that no one picked that up. With that being said, there's a lot of east coasters that are defrosting right now and will be hitting the trails soon. With as little space as those take up in the garage, I'd just hang on to them and relist them again soon. It's not worth your time for $.99. I rather toss something in the trash or weld on it and make gear art then sell a gear set for that. :)

That would have been pretty funny. You chuckleheads bidding it up to $200 'causing Brad to have to pay fees based on the $200. :laugh2::laugh2::laugh2: Okay, maybe not funny, but yeah, it would have been funny.

How about total complete chuckle headed moronic idiot? :laugh2: Actually I think I'll make my title that. Actually my web designer just made the same mistake twice within a week that I'm fixing right now....that cost me $411 so far today and about $800 last week. Perhaps I'll change his title to that. Okay, I have to get back to harassing him.....
