I guess I'll have to check again. I did have a look when you mention it a few weeks ago and the completed auctions ended up at completely unreasonable prices. I won't give up to the frenzy that seems to animate some buyers on eBay. For instance, I've been watching the ongoing prices for a Maxtor 80 GB hard disk, the 7200 RPM model. Well, most auctions for new items end higher than what I would pay if I was buying the drive from GoGoCity.com. I'm always assuming that taking the risk on going on eBay is going to save me a few bucks, not the other way around...
