Indeed.

Oh, that's sad to hear (NPI).

LOL.

I got mine off of Ebay.  I ended up getting two in fact due to what is
in my opinion Ebay's complicity in fraud.  I was in a bidding war with
somebody on one auction and when he finally bid past my stop limit, I
moved on to another auction and won that one.  Then the bidder that I
was bidding against in the first auction bailed out and left me holding
the bag.

Ebay completely let him do it and didn't respond to any of my complaints
about it (IIRC -- this was 7+ years ago).

Was that person I was bidding against really the seller, driving the
price up and then bailing when he noticed I wasn't willing to go higher
and he was getting his maximum price for it?  I have no proof and will
never really know the answer to that question, but it sure makes me
wonder.

And that Ebay allowed him to bail out of an auction that he clearly won
just stinks and considering they get paid as a percentage of the sale
price squarely puts them into a conflict of interest.

I don't think I've bought anything from Ebay since and I'd never again,
not for anything more than $10 or $20 anyway.

But I digress.  :-)
