The ads for these sites piss me off with their misinformation, example, Ipods won for $49.00 etc. What they don't tell you is the bid price only increases by $.01 each bid and each bid cost you $.50 ...do the math! :out:

I think the sites have their benefits, if you know how to use them. You just have to make sure that you don't spend more than you want.

For those who are unaware of how they work:

You buy "bids" @ 0.50 apiece. Then you use those bids in an auction. Each bid that is placed raises the bid .01 (or more depending on the particular auction). If you win the auction, you pay the price for whatever you win.

So for example:

If you purchased 50 bids (25.00) and the product sold for 49.99 you would pay the 49.99 plus you would have the 25.00 you spent on the bids, so essentially you paid 74.99 for the product.

The mistake people make is that they don't include the initial bid purchase in their total price.

      25-26 NHL Regular Season Thread

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!

      Canes vs Rags 7pm

      When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
