i didn't think the buy now button went away in that situation, i *assumed* bidders were just blinded by emotion and lose track. i was watching a microphone this weekend, a used one bidded up to $101 + shipping when a brand new one of the same model went for buy noe $99 free shipping was also available. weird.
i'm ruthless on ebay. the negotiations start after i win and receive the item. not usually with used gear but usually always with *new* gear. it's never really new and the sellers usually misrepresent it in someway, i'm going to haggle that or return the item. and ebay is there to support me every step of the way. usually works out to 20%+ off the bid price.
