I think the whole ebay market is interesting, but I do not think it is a true indicator of what a plug can demand in a shop. I don't think there have been 25 habs plugs total sold on ebay this year.

Surfpirate that sounds like a sleazy deal, Just one for the karma police.

Some plug makers are selling on the net for list price, which is a different market than the instant gratification of a brick and mortar store, how many of us plan to go to the tackle shop and buy off a list and stick to it?

I have seen some plug makers try to sell on ebay and not get their price.

Could Habs raise his wholesale prices, I would say yes. Will that raise the retail price? If I were a store owner and could sell a product that I knew brought people into my shop and did not sit on the shelf, I can make less markup and more money at the same time.

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
