Default Ebay not the cheapist place after all.

so i was looking around for a good price for my new mp3 player(remmember my last one fell and broke) so i am getting the newer verion of it Creative Zen Vision W $299 at there site, $270 on ebay and wabamm $240 on new egg. i am ordering it in like 5 min. and from newegg i will get it the next day for 8 bucks total for shipping.

for a long time i thought ebay was the best place to get somthing cheap(it is) but i never thoght i would be cheaper somewhere else.

I just looked it up and found the mp3 player to be going for $127.50 on ebay, but it's the 30gb one and not the 60. Also, it's an auction and you've got to wait. It's over in 10hrs. Ebay's the cheapest!

there are alot of companies that sell stuff regularly on there, not for cheap, retail prices. and then you have those that charge you $25 shipping on a 4x4 box to make up for their 'low' price.

eBay is too commercail anymore. I use it, well, I look at it but I haven't found any deals that save me more than $10 or $20 so I'd rather buy from a vender than a joe ebay that can and has tried to screw me.

It's the overall price that matters, dude. Not a lot of people care what they charge for shipping as long as the overall price with shipping is cheap. That's just ebay for ya.

mr. power ranger, you got mail.
