Re: eBay parts?

If a part is available on eBay that is normally available elsewhere (let's say, a used RoboRio), and you think you could save money or time by purchasing on eBay, then that should be fine. Caveat Emptor, of course. If you find a part for which only one has been made, or it is no longer manufacturered and is rare, then I don't think it could classify as COTS, and therefore a different rule would apply. All this is subject to any rule changes for next year's game.
