So I was looking at my competition to see why people were bidding 160+ dollars on a used 4gig ipod mini 1st gen.

Then I see a new 4gig 2nd gen.. AT 255 + 19.99 SHIPPING, WITH OVER AN HOUR LEFT!

THESE ARE ONLY 200 DOLLARS IN THE STORE, AND MY APPLE STORE STILL HAS THEM FOR SALE!

What is wrong with people! Why pay so much for something you can get cheaper!

I really don't get it. Can someone explain why these people are spending so much on Ebay?

Who the hell are these people, and how are they allowed to make this much money?

i bought every10minutes caps off a forum... 100 for $33. I then sold them on ebay for $75

and also another guy saw my auction and e-mailed me - asking me if I would sell him 2 caps for $5.

$630...lets hope they get into a bidding war. I don't want anyone to bid it up, though, so PLEASE don't!

you'll get most your bids in the last 12 hours.

mine was $75 with 12 hours this morning, now its $164.50 with about 10 minutes left. i'll see if it goes up in these last few minutes too hehe

$630....thats garbage. Regular pre-orders are going for better than that. I'm pissed.

One possible explaination could be international bidders. Many countries can't get ipods as easily as us, I'm sure.

It disgusts me that someone can goto the apple store and buy that for 200, instead of paying 245+ on ebay (he has 20 dollar shipping)
