seen this so often, I bought a nice computer desk from staples on saturday. It cost £45, people are selling them built on ebay for £100, and people are actually buying them, they do look good and look to be worth more than they are but hey ho

I think a lot of peoples opinion of ebay is "if it's on Ebay - its gotta be cheaper".

You only have to look at the prices that pointy seat cowls go for on ebay - £42 new from any suzuki dealer, but they sometimes go for double that on ebay! Go figure...

I occassionally pickup up special deals I see and spin them straight on eBay and make some money, I'm sure if I went for it I could make a useable secondary income.
