Hate to keep coming back to the old "eBay Madness" topic
(does that usage of quotes count?), but just saw an
auction for an Olympus OM Original Neckstrap (the narrow
blank leatherette kind).  The bidding is already up to
$7.30, and there is a $3.20 shipping charge on top of it.
Are these people crazy or what?

Actually no, anything that goes for under a small value to the bidder (for me
call it $20) should be considered "noise".  The cost of scrounging around in
camera shops is higher than that.  Although for me scrounging around is a fun
activity and goes under the "entertainment" line item in my budget.  It's large
ticket items, bought for more than you could buy them from reputable dealers,
and especially if more than the new retail price.
