    I've bought one thing on eBay before (a server), and never sold anything. Although I do like the affiliate check they send me every month. :)

    Pretty funny song. Haven't bought or sold anything on ebay in quite some time.

    A good ebay-like site is www.throwplace.com

    not addicted as such ... but definitely if the cost of the item > $20 , ebay is worth a search ... (anything below $15-$20 doesnot make much sense with the shipping cost included)....

    A pretty funny song ...

    I like eBay--when I'm looking for unique items that you can't typically find at the mall.

    I've also used it to purchase obscure software and new hockey equipment that would've costed me loads at SportsMart.

    eBay is good, but I've definitely worn out the luster on it.
    I check it every once and a while, but with all the specialty stores around now, I don't use it much. Except when I want to get rid of some junk and it's worth more than $50, then it's worth selling.

    I used to browse through the categories every day, but at the moment, I only look at eBay if I really want to buy something (to check prices, etc.).

    Really? Sorry for being nosey. Do you market it from this site. I tried them once. Do get a commission a surfer had to sign up via my site and then return thru my site to make a purchase. You must have cracked the code? Do share :D

    if they click from your site to ebay, there's a 30 day cookie planted.. if they register or bid within those 30 days, you get paid.

    I've forced myself to stop. I like getting unique items off of there. Particularly copies of past radio shows.

    By the way, happy birthday Geir! :)

    Your explanation makes sense. I will try to find you the email that ebay sent me explaining their commission structure. It was about a full 8 by 11 of text trying to explain the same thing you just wrote. I think. ;)

    I'm addicted bon, I shot up some E-bay last night, I told momma I would not use any more E-bay, but that stuff gives me the best high :D

    E-bay is better than anything I ever done before, I had a bad trip once, I woke up and seen Marilyn Mansons face and nearly died. Never want to overdose like that on E-bay again :eek:

    I'm not a junkie but my wife is. Once she figured out she could buy clothes, it was all over.

    On a related note, anyone know of some good filtering software? :p
