Someone was fussing on chit-Chat about the use of BookCrossing on eBay. I took a look at the item and it seemed fairly innocuous. But somehow the site must have stuck in my head, because this arvo I found myself going through the site looking for old SPI boardgames. I was looking for bargains - I know the values of most of these things and I found a few that were undervalued. I put in a few bids on the offchance that they would stay that way. Buying a $50 game for $10 leaves me a considerable amount of room for profit, even including postage.

A thought crept through my mind, and I entered "West Wing" as a search term. And before I knew it, I had bought a series 5 DVD set for $AUS75, which is a big saving on the same item new in the shops. Such a fine show! Looking forward to this immensely. I'll watch an episode a day at lunchtime.

Yes, eBay is very evil.

So evil that my feedback score has gone up by 30 in the past 12 months, and I've had way more transactions than that. It'll suck you in, and you'll enjoy every step....
