A few years ago I was trying to buy some Ducks Unlimited shooting glasses on ebay. I kept getting outbid and they kept selling for more than you could order them for from a distributor, which I finally did. The last pair I got beat on I actually sent the winner an email and told him "Do you realize you just paid more for these than you can order them for on line every day of the week?" I never got a reply but it made me feel better
