Verne & Tom!
Ditto on your eBay thoughts! Like most of us here, eBay has
been a mixed blessing for me in terms of finding those long sought
after SHP parts. However, I've gotten burned too.
I absolutely agree that eBay makes tons of money and should
do much more to stop this junk from happening. The only
way this will stop is if eBay starts to loose revenue.
Remember,

walks, money talks.
