Joe, We're ALL nuts sometimes when we find something we need and it's just the "right" thing for the car. Two nights ago I bid (ebay) more than I thought parts were worth (on a normal day) for some things I really need for my blue car. Wouldn't you know it.....someone bid more! I thought my bid was over the top, but I still lost the items. In hindsight, I should have bid a LOT more so my search would be over; one less thing(s) I need to make it right. But I was trying to be realistic. I know now that the term "realistic" has no meaning on ebay.
Ebay is a sellers market.
