When I see the item on eBay, I will make sure to post a link to it on the PDML. That way, you will be sure not to miss it. And you might even get some useful comments on how valuable the item is and what price you should pay and what would be a bargain. <g> > > I am sure none of the 400 other PDML readers would bid on the item you wanted. We are just too courteous. Respectfully Bob, I am not entirely in agreement with your arguement here. While letting another few hundred people onto an auction may be a bad thing, I don't think it is as bad as you make it out to be. The first assumption is that there will suddenly be another 400 people gunning for the same item doesn't hold up. For whatever reason, we don't jump on every auction that is posted. If I am looking for a particular item, I dig around on eBay and see if I can find it. Sometimes, after discussions on this list, I do go in search of them on eBay. If I am looking for it, I am going to find it, no matter how badly described it is. OTOH, I don't often post eBay links here, and I make a habit of checking bid histories. If I recognize another PDML'rs handle, and it looks like more than a marker bid, I don't bid on the item. Something else like it will come along soon enough. William Robb
