Awesome eBay Auction Win!

Important!

Dear visitors,

This blog and the Tigarus.com network will be changing our website software in May (2024). There will be some down time and there will be a change to the webpage addresses.

We will also be removing the Anime blogs. The Rocksmith Songs website will be unavailable of a few weeks or months while I move the database to the new software.

At the moment we are running on Wordpress, the new software is an in-house project which is 57 times faster. It will also provide more freedom for development.

Thank you for understanding.

I finally got lucky!

After over a month of searching for a wireless headset, I finally got one. Last week I received my auction win from eBay. I won a complete set of essential computer peripherals: headset, mouse, keyboard, and mouse pad; the items were about 5 months old and still had their original boxes. The auction was won with 75% off the estimated retail price. This was a big win for myself as I have been stricken with a series of bad luck. Now with this win, it seems everything is back on track.

Since November I had a series of computer beak-downs. I even made the mistake of trying Corsair’s mice and keyboards. In general Corsair had been a good brand for their USB Flash drives and Computer Memory. Corsair was also known in PC gaming for their mice and keyboards. A decision I now regret. I had to replace their defective mice and keyboards, and soon after my wireless (Corsair) headset’s battery dead. The headset lasted less than two years but was heavily used and was a great product. I had to switch to good old dependable Logitech. I then managed to find some great deals for a mouse and keyboard, however, finding a headset was much more difficult.

The changing market of headsets had made me into a product hunter. There was a ton of headsets on the market from many brands. A lot of research was done to make an informed decision. I first won an auction for a Arctis 7 wireless headset by SteelSeries. I was the only bidder and was excited. Then after a week I contacted the seller and that was when I was told he had sold it. The seller sold it for a higher price. I was mad. My money was in limbo for two weeks. Once my money was returned to me, I then found an amazing auction. The Razer Man’O’War wireless headset plus Logitech gear.

The seller was a German visiting Vancouver for 6 months and couldn’t take the peripherals home with him. He even had the original boxes. I won the auction with a huge savings of 75% off the estimated retail price. I am glam that the seller didn’t back-out this time. To no surprise to me, the Logitech gear didn’t sell well as it is considered common. The headset is what I really wanted and the Logitech was the icing on the cake. But what was also interesting was that I already had the same mouse and keyboard; now both my computers have the same matching set.
