eBay

Started by Tubthumper (Scott) in Chit-Chat

Why does eBay have to be so addictive? I thought I’d use it to grab myself some bargains, but now it seems I’m spending too much, aka £174 for 2 cymbals. Ok, that’s still a bargain, but I think I’ve spent maybe £300 in the last month and a bit on that damn website.

Goddamn you eBay!

hmmmmmm… sounds like good business opportunity.

This will help me to earn extra dollar to spend at eBay later.

Sorry to break it to you mate but there’s a major design flaw on those Zen Micros. Headphone socket always fucks up after a few months of use.

Who would want to go to a shop anymore? eventually getting served by some spotty teenager once they have finnished their conversation with the other useless member of staff who seems to serve no purpose other than to prop the counter up?

Thats only the first ones I heard, I got one of the newer versions which apparently is fine,creative said only 2%of the new ones have the headphone flaws. Apart from that its brilliant, much better than the abysmal ipod mini

Hopefully mine won’t be one of the 2%! The battery life isn’t too bad as well, the mini ipod only has 8 hours

I’ve used ebay to plug holes in T? and Kerbdog singles collection, but not used it for a while now.

My latest addiction is play.com, just ordered a load of David Lynch dvds and the 3 disc special edition of Spaced.
