| Another site, http://www.onsale.com/ has been mentioned in the
items-wanted note here (110.*). I visited this site this week,
but can't remember if this is "auction": I believe it is.

| 2753.4 | www.onsale.com: IMHO: Don't waste your time. | JULIET::HARRIS_MA | Networks Sales Exec | Fri Jan 24 1997 14:53 | 12 |
| www.onsale.com tends to be full retail/mailorder type pricing. Infact,
I find anything at the component level (disks, memory, cpus, etc) are
actually 15-30% HIGHER than I can walk down to the store and get it
for. Most of the 'deals' are actually retailers who have large
inventory positions and they just want to use www.onsale.com as an
advertising vehicle... no special/discounted prices at all.
much better is www.ebay.com. There is quite a bit of used,
overstocked, one-of-a-kind and n-1 version stuff from individuals and
companies. You REALLY CAN find deals at www.ebay.com

Has anyone ordered from either of these used/new places? Reliability,

| 2753.6 | it's OK for me! | BSS::PROCTOR_R | Sniffing the floral arrangement | Thu Feb 27 1997 19:18 | 19 |
| I have picked up for myself, SO, friends, etc:
- travan 1 tapes: sony: $15
- HP travan tape drive: $80
- Microsolutions tape drive: $90
- NEC 7x cdrom x 2x: $100
- Nakamichi 7x cdom x 2x (two of 'em; new) $140
- SCSI Adaptec 1542: $40
sold stuff on www.ebay.com
- stuff: $whatever
it all worked fine when I got it in the door.
no problems.
highly recommended by Dr. Mom.

| 2753.7 | Legit, if not a little expensive... | JULIET::HARRIS_MA | Networks Sales Exec | Mon Mar 03 1997 12:59 | 6 |
| Those places tend to deliver product as noted, no difficulty in
shipping or charging etc. They are legit. They tend to be A LITTLE
EXPENSIVE however. You can usually find products for 25%-35%
cheaper by looking elsewhere, mailorder, etc.
