I figured this may help alleviate some worries I have about my metabolism and may motivate me to stay active........I probably will use it on my clients too in the future.
Thanks!! |
I am the eBay diva!!!
1. How I win: What I do is I save to my watch list, and then I come in to the bidding in the last 5 minutes, and then put in the highest price I want to pay. I usually confirm this bid in the last 2 minutes.
2. Prices of GWFs: I did an advanced search and could see "completed items" to see what price they were going for. $180, $107, $131, $200, ($139 at a buy it now.. this is very good, since you don't have to wait and bid), $108, $123, $179, $122, $105, $132
so probably if you put in $135, there's a good chance you can win, and also that is a good BIN range.
HOWEVER, amazon.com often has sales on the armband and display for
$169 + $30 if you buy them together, and that includes 3 free months subscription.
The cheapest display on ebay went for $60. So on eBay, you'll be paying $130 and $60=$190, but from amazon.com, new you can pay $200 on sale.
So, in conclusion, hahaha (I told you I was an eBay diva), for such a pricy item with technical issues, I doubt I would take the risk to save $20-$40. Or I would be patient and see if I could win one for $120 or less, and be content to not own the display (which I love)... and meanwhile, I'd be checking amazon.com for sales. Ugh, no sale now... and maybe not for rest of summer.
Or, buy it now, not on sale. $200 is only 200 candy bars you're not eating.
good luck winning one on eBay for $125! I know you can do it!
