Hey Don -- I was really tempted to say something to those bidders, also. The problem here is interference with a legitimate auction. If two people are stupid enough to bid that high for chips readily available for $7-$10, do we have the right to interfere with the seller's right to maximize their profits? That is the point of auctions, I think -- to let the bidders decide what they will pay at that moment. (This is not the same, IMHO, as arbitrarily establishing a high price due to artificially induced scarcity.) However, if I had an extra, I might offer it to #2 after the bids close.<G>
