So you think an opening bid of one penny is fair?
Jeez, fellas, back off on the accelerator a bit.
a) there's a photo, so you can see what you are getting.
b) the dude selling it, at 8.01, would be LOSING cash on shipping.
c) nobody is armtwisting. click somewhere else on your monitor, and the unit disappears.

However, I believe the original point was valid: fair means poor.
Just as semantic migration (and grade inflation) have pushed
mediocre to mean lousy, when it used to mean average.

Plus, for a lot of us on this site, we wouldn't know what "good as new"
means, considering we haven't bought anything new in a coupla decades.
