And under $6 for single on several sites.

In fact, I don't think MSRP is even $7/stick, someone correct me if I'm wrong.

On that note, is it just me, or did CBID used to publish MSRP with every (most) ads . . . And not so much anymore?

probably the same reason people start a new thread on the same topic that is posted almost monthly.

I feel your pain also.

I've been here several years and have assumed they do not know about CI or other sites. Therefore when then see an item, they have already decided to buy without considering its worth, plus shipping, etc. They may feel a feeling of being in control or in charge by overbidding. I have no answer for you but just watch real life. Had I done that all through life, I wouln't have any savings to look back on today. If it's not a bargain, I don't buy, the end of that.

Bid on item recently, and was watching screen as it expired, second before it was call, yup, someone upped the bid. It was 14$ cheaper on CI after his last bid. It makes no sense, but glad it's their money their spending and not our.
