Title: ok, which one of you outbid me on eBay?
Post by: rullywowr on November 14, 2013, 11:59:29 PM
So, there I was looking at this auction for 2000 pieces of 100nF Panasonic Film caps
http://www.ebay.com/itm/2000-PCS-PANASONIC-ECQ-V1H104JL3-/331064185404?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT&nma=true&si=fmzfwxhNJEI0vVcobxQvnPl2Nwg%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc (http://www.ebay.com/itm/2000-PCS-PANASONIC-ECQ-V1H104JL3-/331064185404?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT&nma=true&si=fmzfwxhNJEI0vVcobxQvnPl2Nwg%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc)

The bid was $14.00 until about 20 seconds left to go... I put my bid in at $55 and I had the auction at $33.00 .... WHAM!  Outbid in the final seconds.  Probably someone using a sniping program.  Finally sold for $78.00 plus $12.00 shipping.

So close.  Seeing as 2000pcs at Mouser goes for $118...I guess $78.00 is a pretty good deal (save like $30).  I should have bid like $80.

Just ranting, I figured there was a high probability that one on the forum outbid me  8)  It's all good!

Use Gixen rullywowr.  Free sniping.

Btw, those are the same ones I've been selling on the buy/sell section, except mine are straight leaded and not bandiliered.  So no.  It wasn't me either :D

If it makes you feel any better, I got sniped on an EBMM Albert Lee last night, lost the auction by eleven cents.
