Ouch: with the postage costing $1.29, plus the cost of the mailer, that had to hurt. Even if he got a good deal on the surplus LEDs.
Indeed. I've always had a love-hate relationship with the Best Offer function on eBay. Love it because of the raw value you can get if you know how to work these sellers, but I hate it because, having dabbled as a seller myself, I know how bad it is to get those "borderline offers" (the ones right on the line of what you decided to deny vs. accept). I do feel sorry for people when I use Best Offers :-?..
Ill have to look for it but for my led cube i ordered 1000 blue led's with 1000 resistors as well and paid something like 20 bucks to my door
Ill see if i can find a link
Wow! I'd love to see a link for that :). That's about 2 cents for an LED and a Resistor :O!
