Well aware AB. My point was that the seller put them out there with a realistic starting price, and the successful bidder is to be congratulated because either a) they may get them at or not far from the starting bid, or b) they will get in a successful last minute bid on the heels of other hopeful bidders.

All in all a hopeful, encouraging, and exciting genuine auction. This is what built ebay, and what some of us remember and miss from the early days.
