Not that anyone cares... but I am so good I even impress myself sometimes!
I emailed the seller of the tuner, asking if I had guessed right about what transpired in the auction, and here is his reply:
Doug,
You were right... I put in the bid of $333.33, saw that it would probably not stand up and decided to up my bid since I would not be able to be online when the auction ended. My max bid was $444.44.
Chris :)
Gotta just love ebay! Although I have been disappointed over the past month that nobody on ebay is selling a rear windshield wiper motor for a Taurus station wagon. Sheesh, you'd think even the local K-Mart store would have those...
