Thank goodness for cbid...............that's all I gotta say.
The other auction place where I USED to spend money??
Someone in their sales department is doing a most excellent impersonation of FGM's avatar.

Oh, and I pulled in a few Newellesque winners here so far this week.
Look at me!

Yep....
It's so bad, that for many of our favorites, their STARTING price is higher than the WINNING price here.
This started late last year over there, and just gets worse with each passing month.
Maybe this is their "exit strategy" to get out of the auction business.

I'm resolved to the position that the new regulations are too much, and if they don't want the tobacco tax money, F em.

Why should they stop if someone is willing to click "Buy" @ $44?

I venture to guess they watch CBid activity like a hawk. A smart business practice

On another note, seems like the volume of Tats on this site is reduced over the last weeks.

I've pretty much stopped bidding at all the usual places except for the occasional s&g DPN-level attempts; however, haven't stopped buying.... Whistle

I haven't been bidding or buying a whole lot lately now that I'm not smoking in my car.

Now if I could find a cigarbid for car upgrade parts...
