Harvey, you screwed up. Why would you dicker over $5.00. You should use the buy it now, on something your really want. Now you are going to stew over not getting the item forever. If you had paid $5.00 too much the ejoyment of the item will make you forget what you paid almost immediatly. See you at Expo over the weekend. Al
