I have always gone by "wspokes" on ebay when buying and selling and similar to Charlie, I commonly find items I am interested in where "oldlugs" has also bid, I no longer even attempt to stay in the game. I am also not offended by getting sniped! It happens. I have also bought from several listmembers like "bikenut" and sold to "bianchi", so we can all see where it is one big happy family here. Peace
