It's because they are as thick as shit! I was just reading about some woman who genuinely thought Tony Blair was still Prime Minister!! |

I agree. Didn't the same crap happen when Fergie went ? Football fans / mega hype / and eBay . What a dangerous combination . |

In other sections of EBay, the "Buy It Now" option is often reserved for the more run-of-the-mill stuff, in many cases where vendors have bulk items and want to get rid one by one.
I guess, in my case, I still associate "Buy It Now" with that vendor behaviour and tend to steer clear.
Just a thought. _________________ http://www.flickr.com/photos/derby1884/sets/ |

Well I've sold 3 copies in as many days, so I'm not complaining about sales, just wondered why people are so stupid to pay even MORE over the odds than they do
