I've been interested in buying a particular lens lately, (Curse you Mark Roberts), so I've been haunting eBay. When I bid on an item I 'll often will check out a competitors previous purchases, to get some idea of what I'm up against. Here's something I've noticed. Some buyers buy multiple specimens of the same item, often bidding considerably more than it's actually worth. I mean what the hell? How many 50mm f2.0 A lenses does one need, one bidder, (and I wish I'd saved the feedback page for this guy, so the curious could look), had bought more than 20 in the past three months, in some cases paying almost $200.00 for a lens that even KEH usually doesn't get more than $20.00-$35.00 for. Is there some kind of equipment acquisition derangement I'm not aware of. (There are all kind I am aware of, after all I'm a member of this list).
