thats the reason the harbor freight coupon thread was started

From the listing:

"As per eBay rules - you are not bidding on the coupon itself. You are paying a for my time to personally locate, verify and to deliver this coupon via USPS First Class Mail to the winner."

Ha Ha Ha good for him. That's a tough way to earn a dollar (after ebay/paypal fees) he's likely a HF employee with access to pile of those coupons.

How about an eBay auction for some 'Blue Sky'

 

[Kev442]

17 sold, so he is obviously filling a need out there. Not like he's getting rich off it or anything.

 

[Richard Cranium]

people sell any thing on ebay, just go to ebay and search for coupons and there is tons.
Just some stiff trying to make a buck.

Yep, I bought one last year.. I hated to do it, but it was $2.99 and I saved about $80.. couldn't find it online anywhere unfortunately. Even went to the book store and checked every car mag's HF ads

 

[HolladayMTM]

Shoot.. I have a whole bag of HF coupons here in my tv cabinet.. Maybe I need to put my Paypal business account to use lol.. I hate the looks I get when I go to Harbor Freight and use them and save more money than I spend. They act like your being cheap skate...

 

[slacker garage shop]

Yep I bought one few months ago. It was for one of there motorcycle lift tables. In store they are $499. You can find coupons easily for $299. The coupon I bought was to get it for $269. I paid $3.00 for the coupon that saved me $230.

Maybe I need to get into Extreme Coupon Selling? LOL I'd think they are fake bids, considering you can get the exact same coupons on ebay for BIN at $1.00....but then again a fool and his money.....well you know the story

 

[Basstracker34]

I'm amazed that when you look at the bidders they aren't all 0 feedback ones! You'd think they'd know better.

 

[Need4racin]

People are lazy and stupid, he found a market for that.

 

[Texas Aggie]

Wow - $86 for the four drawer cart coupon is ridiculous. It may be $130 off the "regular" price of $230, but it's always on sale for $150 (like it is now).

http://www.harborfreight.com/580-lb-capacity-four-drawer-roller-cart-95659.html

And you can even use a 20% off coupon for this since it isn't considered a tool cabinet, so you can actually get it for $120. Whoever buys this coupon is going to pay at least $186 for the cart and coupon.

So how many of those auctions does the buyer actually think they are bidding/buying the actual item - and not just a discount coupon?
