as a buyer and seller, I have found that selling in a store format but accepting best offers on everything allows a few things. You Usually get the going rate-as in top auction value for your items. I price them all according to my competition. What they price is my price. Usually much higher than the auction value. Sometimes I get more, sometimes i get less, but make the sale. The difference is an insurance for me. I can't list everything every week and risk taking the loss because there are in fact less bidders now on ebay. If the one person that wants what I have doesn't check ebay that week, I could be out 50-75% of my item value. Had that happen before and it doesn't make ebay worth my time to sell. However by running everything in the store 365 days a year, when that one person does find what they want when they want it, I can strike a deal, get fair auction value, and it seems like both sides win. Now Buying on the other hand, It is all a waiting game now. Very Very good deals are to be had, but patience is key. Less bidders and the isoldit stores are the gift to ebay. I've gotten better deals from the isoldit stores than anywhere else. They do Horrible listings, Can't properly identify anything they sell, and they like to do big lots. That translates for me into big big value. Now unfortunately the person who consigned those items is getting ROBBED. However they made the choice to use those clowns to sell their things. They could've done any number of things differently but thats the risk of selling on ebay. Myself I don't do any shady last minute bidding. I simply identify the value of what is listed to me. Then I bid that value once. If I get it, it's worth it, If not then that's ok, I didn't overbid. The same can be said for the buy it nows also. There are bad sellers out there that cannot properly identify what they are selling. They do the generic $25.00 listing price even though the item is valued to me as a seller at $150.00. Most of what I sell I buy on Ebay. Thats the game i guess. Some are just better players.

Today's Featured Article - A Belt Pulley? Really Doing Something? - by Chris Pratt. Belt Pulleys! Most of us conjure up a picture of a massive thresher with a wide belt lazily arching to a tractor 35 feet away throwing a cloud of dust, straw and grain, and while nostalgic, not too practical a method of using our tractors. While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
