Wish I could help you out, But I'm in the same boat. Unfortunately! There is no cure once the ebay bug has bit just like the rock bug!All you can do is learn patience and wait till you can find it for the right price. Maybe I should go look at that any ways, But I'm not going to bid on it , I'm not!

You just have to say...No to Bay! I know of other people that have the fever. They are actually selling their possessions not because they HAVE to but only for the fact that they enjoy SELLING things on E-bay! Now, they might not be buying a whole lot on the site but they are still losing money because they are not even coming close to what they paid for these items. It's sad. There has to be an AA sort of organization that can help isn't there? If you folks continue to spend large amounts for things you really can live without you're going to lose more than just money. Aren't you. Good luck.

I am lucky...I don't get to spend much on ebay because my wife is spending it all on bears. She is more addicted to ebay than I am. I will bid on stuff I realy, realy need...

Why you poor thing!It's bad for me and it's just lapidary! It goes to show you that all you have to do is look around and you'll find some one worst off then you. Some one call the national disease center and warn them! We have a credit card epidemic on it way!

That is why I resist the Bay- To easy to fall into the clutches- I have only made one purchase- and that was enough to show me HOW bad it could get!!!! Heck I can't even remember my user name (Thank goodness).

LOL @ Stefan. I fell into it a few years but learned my lesson. I didn't even buy that much but it was enough.
