    And if you look at the number of bids some of them are getting now X .60 cents each (or approx) they are raking in some serious money on some of those items where they may get 4-5.00 apiece from half a dozen people they more than recoup the "penny" price.

    Well figure .60 cents a bid with something that goes for $1.50 = $89.40 for them (.60 a bid x 149 bids). Good business plan - albeit with the chance for some losses (those .04-.05 winners must kill em!)

    And for clarity sake - I'm BlackMetallic on there :)
