eBay Bidders Go Even More Crazy

I guess we have known this for a long time already, but this weekend I had a special example of how crazy bidders can get.

The "usual" degree of craziness makes people buy items at eBay at a higher price than they would pay if they did some very basic research on some pricing portals. I have grown somewhat used to this by now.

This weekend I saw people bid for a used sports watch; they ended up paying more than for a brand new one also selling on eBay. They were the same models and the auctions were only 2 hours apart from each other.

With such people around, bidding is no fun any more. But watching is! :-)
