THIS is why you can't get a good deal anymore.

It gets worse the closer we get to Christmas. Too many people buying for someone else that have NO idea how to do a google search! That's over and above those bidders that just get caught up in "auction fever"!

It's not like they can accidentally pay too much. If you overbid the retail, an alert window pops up asking you if that's what you want to do and even links you to their retail site where you can buy them.

Really? I never heard about that one.
These smokes I bought were the first in over three years I've bought at the devil site, I was boycotting them. I needed both so I gave it a shot and saved money, now I'm boycotting them some more.

I wanted a nub ash tray and bid over what they were selling it for on their site and an alert came up letting me know and asking if I wanted to continue.
