Different bidder in the mix this time. wfnchip bid $2577 which pushed up pnutguy's top bid to $2627. Without the wfnchip runner-up bid..., pnutguy would have gotten the chip at a slight advance over goto66 at $812.

One never knows about ebay. A previous price has no effect on a similar piece coming up at a later date. It all depends upon who is bidding on that particular lot. Maybe the underbidder was not available to bid at the time on the previous offering of the similar chip.
