Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, wine in the other screaming, "WOO HOO what a ride!!!

| Deleted User | I buy and I sell on ebay.
I have a goal to eliminate my huge deficit on ebay, and I did eliminate it for a few months. Then I got an mp3 player, and it looks like I won't eliminate it any time soon if ever.
I'm selling my lego, and I do have a limit to how much I have to sell, so sooner or later I will have to stop. :-/
edit: but so far I have bought foreign paper money(obselete, as I collect bills), CDs (music), canadian silver dollars, jersies, a map of quebec, and lots of stuff....
It owned when I bought a set of bills for one cent and then sold 'em for 10 dollar.

I've never sold anything, because I don't have any junk that's worth selling.

Status : Online | I buy games, cd's and dvd's. I quite dislike ebay really, it's filled with bugs, though I've learned how to avoid them, and their support is slow, incompetent and just copy/pastes their standard answers, and doesn't read the whole mail.
but I don't know any better alternatives.
I can't sell because shipping from Sweden costs a fortune, there's no way I could compete.

When you realise you can get all the things you ever wanted that aren't available in the shops any more it becomes more than a website. It's a way of life.

Status : Offline | Since I didn't start playing adventure games until the fall of 1999, many of the older Mac games were only available used. I estimate that half of my game collection came from eBay. I've also bought rubber stamps from there for my collection.
