First online purchase

I am second on the newbie waiting list. Thank you.
So I just got off the phone with CI and I have to say they were great. I made a severe newbie mistake and didn't research enough before delving in the MMAO arena. I bid 2X what they offered it at (still 37.5% cheaper than MSRP) and they changed my bill to match what they offered it at (37.5% of MSRP). I have found my online home.

Yep, that's a lesson learned. MMAO & Cigarbid (a.k.a. The Devil Site) almost always list the MSRP for comparison even though they actually sell the item for less. Anytime I use MMAO or Cigarbid I keep other tabs open to CI, FSS, and a few other vendors to see what they actually sell for.
