Why would someone pay $222 for a early 80's Minn Kota 28lbs Thrust bow mount foot control Trolling Motor plus $27 Shipping for a total of $249, when you can go to walmart and get a 40lbs Thrust Bow Mount Trolling Motor for $319 just makes absolutely no sense to me. Here is a link to the ended auction.

 In the imortal words of forrest Gump

" Stupid is as stupid does "

I saw a BPS $50 gift card go for a penny less that $50

Why would someone bother? Why not just order online or hand BPS the cash? This world  has some dummies.

Most stuff on ebay is no longer a deal, it is just like buying from amazon.com.

Some people have more money than sense! IMO:o)  I buy on Ebay all the time BUT I usually use the "Buy It Now" options on items I want to buy so I don't get into a bidding war with someone like the first sentence mentions! There are good/great deals on Ebay (sometimes).
