Do you have any stories about other bidders that paid way to much for a unit? What was in the unit and how much did they pay?

I saw someone buy a unit full of Obama bumper stickers, pins, and other campaign stuff for $1. Yup, there's a sucker born every minute.

And he's probably selling them on eBay for a buck a piece.

Well, someone's buying them; otherwise there wouldn't be this much competition.

Check the Completed listings box and you'll find that close to 75% of the listing resulted in Not Sold.
