Ebay and STS

[gidget1978]

Can you believe that STS is already selling on ebay?

I seen a full sent the other day for over $300 Canadain, why you would spend that kind of money and not buy directly from Cathe.com is beyond me.
I just looked again and someone else is selling each set seperately for only $12 or something like that. The dvds are laid on some sort of material...out of the packaging...but claim that they have only been viewed once but aren't bootlegged. I don't buy it for 2 seconds. Why would someone spend all that money, watch a dvd and then sell it for $100 less then what they bought it for? I bet if I keep watching the same seller will have numerous sets to sell over the next little while. They should make a dvd (some how) that can't be copied.
I made the mistake of buying a dvd on ebay one time, I couldn't see much wrong with it. I viewed it for a few mins but nothing major. I probably didn't do the workout until a week later (I already own it on VHS) and when I did , it started skipping.

Anyway...stuff like that ticks me off.

I've seen quite a few selling weeks of meso cycle on ebay and the YaYa swap board.
Some feel you only need one set of dvd's for each meso cycle. I don't know how that is possible. I haven't viewed all my dvd's (I'm still in week one).
Anyway, I couldn't never break up my STS set! I love it too much

I have seen this alot.
I bought the Susanne summers door gym for 69 bucks direct.
Some guy on e-bay was selling it for 128 said hard to find.
WTF..
You have to watch e-bay..
I couldn't break up my sets..

I think Cathe doesn't ship internationally. The seller might be trying to tap into the global market.

I don't think they are necessarily bootlegs.

1) Some people may buy multiple sets during the presale to sell later. (that's where I think probably most of the full sets for sale right now on Ebay are from)
2) Some people may not like certain meso's and decide to sell them
3) Some people may have decided after they previewed them that the system is not their cup of tea (and you can't returned opened DVD's, so what else would they do).

$300 Canadian may still be less than the regular retail price on these.

I do think there are a lot of people for whom Ebay is like gambling. It doesn't matter to them that they are paying more than retail, as long as they 'win the auction" (that's the only reason I can see for some of the prices. Don't people at least do a simple web search to see how much the item costs new before bidding on Ebay?)

I dunno....why would you preorder a bunch, view them and then try to sell them? Why bother viewing them at all? And even at the presale price, they are being sold for way cheaper. If I were to recieve my set and didn't like them I would rather keep it and make no money then sell it for $12-$20. That doesn't even make sense.
