    I am not really, but it does come in handy when you want to buy some odd stuff that you can not find anywhere else.

    I had one young chick that was selling magazines, I ordered one with Shakira on the cover from her and it took her about 3 months to deliver it.

    She only sent if after I reported bad rep. on her twice and e-mailed her about 5 times.

    So you have to watch the sellers close when you buy from e-bay, you will not always get what you pay for, eBay will not give you your money back, they make you jump through hoops and you have to keep hammering the seller.

    That is what I do not like about E-bay. There is a lot of fraud happening there. :mad: ;) :(

    I've started doing wire wrapping jewelry as a hobby and ebay has been sucking me in for hours looking at stones to include in the jewelry. I've spent about $150 in the last 3 days :)

    LOL - no covert ops for me girl, mainly use 'em for scoping planes at the local airfield; we have the Farnborough Airshow here every 2 years; MiG 29s, F-16s, Typhoon, Battle o' Britain flight (Spitfire, Hurricane and a Lancaster (?)) and the Red Arrows, the best aerobatic display team in the world. :)

    There's also a few vantage points 'round here where the scenery can be appreciated - just get out on your bike and then appreciate the views :D There's heathland just a mile or so away where you can see Broadmoor... it's eerie when they test their siren out once a week, sounds like WW3's coming :eek:

    Well I've managed to drag myself away from ebay :D

    So far I've bought a limited edition U2 CD, PHP for dummies (that's me!) and a Sony cinema system.. and I have my eye on 2 auctions at the moment, one for concert tickets and the other for a mountain bike lol
