i’m an addict

someone needs to take away my interweb access… i’ve spent like $475 in the past 31 days on ebay :doh: :doh: :doh:

sure is fun buying shit you don’t need though :hs:

anyone else an avid ebay buyer? i see shit in stores or mags and immediately go to ebay and get the best deal… it’s funny, i’ll see a dvd i want and hunt it down on ebay for a week, buy it, it takes another week to ship and by the time i get it, i don’t even care to see it anymore :embarassd :ugh2:

are you suggesting they don’t sell car parts?

[http://pages.ebay.com/catindex/partsaccessories.html](http://pages.ebay.com/catindex/partsaccessories.html)

if you don’t buy dvd’s or stupid stuff then you are missing out (although idon’t ‘collect’ dvd’s like some people…)

u gotta do your research before u go on ebay. sometimes u can get deals, but alot of times u pay norml price or even more. if u know what u r doing, u can make out pretty well. also, i can find alot of stuf on there that i would have a real hard time finding other-wise
