I Love eBay, most often...

JUST picked up a $700 (retail @ Grainger) part for $145!

Sometimes, you get the bear...

Congrats Craig.


I do tend to look there more often now.

Some good deals can be had.

The other day I saw a DeepSea sell for $6700... the auction was up for less than a minute. Everything was legit too. I tried to purchase then... someone beat me to it.

You can still get a great deal if you research and do some homework
