I recommend that if anyone here is seriously interested in these to follow this auction and bid at the last possible second. Remember the last 1-18 set on eBay that was sniped with 10 seconds to spare. These are a great set and I hope someone gets them that would use them and cherish them forever. I do think the price will climb higher toward the end but they are worth it. Happy bidding (and no I'm not the seller!) Patrick

Holy Crap! I just watched the 1-18 videos. Man, that Jet Cone really moves. And the spin cycle looks like it's in fast forward. I can see why people like it. Is this washer louder than Sam Kinison? I mean, when he was living? | ||

Fair or not, it's the game...
Whatever your opinion of these auction sniper services may be, the reality is that this is now the playing field and the new rules of the online auction game. If you want to win something you really want, you have to compete with everyone else out there. I swear by these services and wouldn't have won the Maytag dishwasher yesterday without it.

I agree
Like Greg said, if you want something on eBay you have to do the work to get it. I too have bid at the very last second and won. I've even had people email me at the end of the auction asking if I bought the item just so I could resell it and if so, what would I want for it. I admit I hate being outsniped by someone else but it seems to be the only way to get something that is in demand and collectible and hard to find all at the same time. My advice is: don't bid up the price early on in the auction. If you want it and are willing to pay what it has been bid up to, put in your bid as close to the end as possible. This is only my opinion and all may not agree. Patrick | ||

I'm still wondering if by posting the good stuff here in the group, are we shooting ourselves in the foot. It may be slightly conceited for one to believe one's posting of a certian auction alerted those not otherwise inclined to troll through eBay looking for vintage appliance auctions, but it has been noticed certian auctions in the past have attracted the same several persons. It would be a shame of the group turned into a clearing house for those seeking vintage appliances on eBay or Craigslist but not wishing to do the leg work themselves. As for sniping, if one truly bids the highest one will go at the start, then that is that no matter how much or when someone else bids. If one wasn't willing to pay $500 up front, then sniping the same amount at the end may get the item, but one still would have to pay the $500 providing that is where the final sale price was.

Depending upon how soon the seller wants the appliance out, you have a few options. Versatronics generous offer, or contact Craters and Freighters. Craters and Freighters are not the most inexpensive option, but if one figures in one's own time and expenses they may come in pretty close. If you could get a cheap flight,bus,train out to PA, rent the U-haul and a car at a good rate, then drive back (factor in gas, hotel,rest stops), it may come in less than using a freight service, but this is the holiday season and for many time is short/valuable.

Talk About Chomping At The Bit
*LOL* No flys on you Donnie. When C&F contacts you have the following information handy for each item: Type of item(s), weight,length, width, and height. Of course C&F needs to know where they are going and where to pick up from. Most C&F locations move major appliances all the time, but you should ask if this particular location has experience moving washing machines and dryers. Some money can be shaved off the price if items are already packed/crated. While C&F tends to pack/crate extremely well, not everything needs to be on a pallet, which it seems C&F uses by default for "heavy" items. There is another option; UPS freight will ship major appliances if they fall within certian guidelines (weight versus dimensions). One simply packs/crates the item and then calls UPS to arrange pickup and delivery. If the items are UPSable, it is cheaper than C&F, but someone has to to the packing/crating. Since this is UPS and not C&F, the better items are crated/packed the less chance of damage. Have had several large heavy items sent via UPS with no problem. All however were well packed and crated. It is widely known all boys play with their new toys on Christmas morning, guess we know where Donnie will be all Christmas day! *LOL* Keep us posted! Launderess | ||
