That is exactly what you have to do if you want to find something on ebay and get it at a decent price. When I put out the effort to search for that missing piece of equipment that I want, I don't want to be penalized when someone who has no interest in the item blows the whistle to alert those who put out no effort at all to find it. I am going to retire July 1. I have spent the past year trying to accumulate the cameras and lenses I will need to keep me busy and help me make a little extra money in my retirement. The only way I know to make money is to buy low and sell high. I don't ask for anyone to pimp the items that I have for sale nor to alert the world to the bargains I have found. There have been a lot of items that I have seen come and go on ebay while I waited for what I thought was a fair or bargain price. There are enough JCO's ;-) on ebay to keep use poor slobs honest. If someone wants to get an item at either a fair or outlandish price, I say let them put out a little effort as well. -- Kenneth Archer + San Antonio, Texas [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ #24980801 Powered by Linux ++ Mailed by Kmail - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
