Mike and Donna,
I couldn't agree with you more. When a $10 item becomes a $40 item as soon as it walks out the door, something stinks. It is kind of like the mid eastern oil cartel. Grab em by the pants and shake em until all of the loose change falls out of their pockets. I for one will not support anyone who feels that they must mark a chip up 300% just because a handful of bozo's will pay that price on eBay...forgetaboutit!
