The LUG is NOT an auction house or billboard. > B. D. What you are saying is that LUGgers deserve automatic price breaks (for what reason?), whereas eBay is a true open market for world bidders. I don't see how an auction could be considered as generating 'unjustified' prices. No one is forcing people to bid. :) I have posted many items over the past several weeks on the LUG. Last week I sold an M2 and an M5 for my asking price. But an M3, M4 and M6 went unsold, in fact, no inquiries at all. So, I posted the M6 on ebay with no reserve, and a $2 initial bid. I don't know what more I could do to make it easy for LUG or ebay (or LUGgers who buy off ebay.) - -R - ------- PowerLogix R&D, Inc.
