Awesome Duo auction, great price with great games

Someone here should jump on this. Not my auction, but that price can't be beat even for a loose working Duo.

Someone's made a bid, so the Buy It Now option has disappeared.  How much was it?

I hate how that works... BIN should stay available until the auction hits the BIN price.

I'll probably place a bid or three on this one to replace my duo.

That's what happens tons of times.  People intentionally knock the Buy it Now off the auction in hopes of getting it cheaper, only to have it go over the Buy it Now price.  You would think feePay would make the Buy it Now actually stick on the auction until the items actually sold for less or someone uses the BiN option.
All is well. :)

Yea for as much as they charge you for listing as BIN. EBay fees are the reason for all the bloated prices on the good stuff.

Yeah I agree, its so freaking funny how many times this happens, I see things often end for over the BIN price if its good stuff, and not just for videogames either, rare metal and punk records too. I remember like a 2 years ago I sold a stack of my japanese import Saturn games(like 5 or 6 of em)and 4 of them ended at least $15-20 higher than my BIN price,all to the same dude too, I felt bad about that and gave him a $30 discount and free shipping. But yeah just goes to show, if it feels like a decent price for BIN, just buy it, cause honestly, chances are it may end higher than the BIN.
