Sorry for this post, but I've won a few obstacles and fingerboard stuff off eBay, things that have 99p starting bid and like 2 days for the auction length, but folk bid like crazy straight away, hiking the price right up, but if you used it properly then you're more likely to scoop a bargain, like white 32mm BRT's for £10.40 and sets of Oak wheels for £8 a set because I waited right until the end of the auction before bidding.

Sorry for the rant, sniping items on eBay is way cheaper in the long run, but folk seem to get carried away bidding on stuff immediately which only pushes the prices up, sometimes they end up paying more than the cost for to buy the item new.

People just don't care. I collect coins as another hobby and companies have their website and then an eBay store. They have one item selling for $100 and then the same exact item sells for roughly $130 on their eBay page. I guess people are just impatient.

I guess so man, but I'll get this item just like I've won every other auction I've bidded against with this person

All for well below retail too, though if folk keep bidding on it then they're going to bump it up above the price I'm willing to pay.

It's the BRR Mike Schneider ramp with the brick wall on one side.

This sparked my curiosity and I went on ebay.
Found this........someone trying to sell a G8 park......but look at the picture.

3k for a park?

I'm building my own!

That's insane money for a park, what's wrong with the pic though?

The problem with the picture is that it is not of a G8 park.. But of a Big Beudl model of a G8 park.
