Yeah, too bad it dropped. I was hoping to buy a DSLR camera today :( though the ones I was looking at were $800+ anyway :)

 

OT, but your icon wins for scariest Halloween related pic out of the bunch. After watching the rerelease of that movie, I had nightmares for days. Since then, I've sworn to never watch that movie again. :eek:

You do realize this is a selling opportunity, too? And, it has no limit. Split the difference. Cover the selling fees and still offer a discount to the buyer. Many sellers are adding 30% to their selling prices. What's the incentive to buy? Deals are getting harder to find. If the price after discount is below your previous target, its still a good deal. Share the joy.

Yeah, finding a BIN that isn't overpriced by 25% or more is the hard part.

 

 

BTW, I read the terms today and it says 12 uses per ebay account and subject to a $2500 max per year. Somewhere in this thread it was posted that it was six uses per account. It may have changed with the change in discount.

Um, I think you missed my point. There is a limit on the buying side, but not the selling side. You can move some of your books at a better than normal price and still offer the buyer a discount, too. Just split the rebate.
