Auction outfit in Canberra

[TerraHertz]

I recently learned of an auctions outfit in Canberra.  https://www.allbids.com.au

It's a 'consignment' auction house. Looks like sometimes they sell interesting tech stuff. Although it suffers from:
  * Being in equipment-starved Oz, so prices are ridiculous.
  * Their categories tree structure is not tech-aware. Typical.
  * Has that 'bids extend the auction close by 5 minutes' annoying feature, that makes snipe bidding nearly useless.
  * 22.5% 'buyer's premium' + GST ... are they kidding?
  * You can't save the full size item pictures, even if you won it. Screenshot of small size image or nothing. Whyyyy?

20181122 Edit to add:
 * Finished items get removed from your watch list ONE DAY after end of bids. So better save a link. It remains to be seen how long they'll retain old listings, but so far the links below still work.

A few recent items:

All way out of my price range, sob..  But I did get one thing at a decent price that I wanted:

So, another time-sucking auction site to watch.

Ctrl-Shift-Printscreen ( Windows) works

Or if you want to get fancy, dig through the source code.

Or use Firefox, click on the preview picture to go to the large view, then hold the shift key while right-clicking. This will open the context menu (which is otherwise supressed) to copy the link, save the image etc.

Ah ha, thanks. I did not know about that one. Works!  Or Ctrl-Shift-Printscreen.
As for digging in the source code, I do that fairly often but that site's code confuses me.

It still counts as a negative against the site, that they would attempt to inhibit save of images.

I use the Imagus plugin which shows the image full size when you hover, then simply right click save as. 2500pix wide image saved

Yeah $3565 + shipping for the Spectrum Analyser... sigh here too. (although shipping looks reasonable)
