I second that! last year I bid on an evinrude 9.9 kicker for almost $700. I was out bid and the motor sold for just about $800. I couldn't see blowing that kind of money on an early 80s motor... a month later I won a 94' 15hp evinrude that probably had less than 20 hours on it and in beautiful shape, damn near factory condition for $400 flat out! I started her right up and she ran like a top! The motor was also close by so I just picked it up on the way back from work one day. Ebay and Craigslist are awesome!

All you have to do is remember the first rule....and that is if you miss something don't worry... another just like it will be along shortly.. so don't ever overbid just cause you think you won't see another.
