wow you really feel like you won....but then of course you have to pay.

i've learnt how to do it now...you nkow wait till the dying seconds before upping your bid.

great fun

lemme just see if my nice necklace arrives now

and you nkow...i wouldn't mind selling stuff...i got loads of jewellery i DON'T wear...anyone ever sold on ebay b4?

I remember last christmas I was bidding for something on E-bay and there was this one person who kept raising the bid!

Finally I won! But it turned out to be my girlfriend who I was bidding against.

I had told her about it, but she didn't know I was bidding for it.

I've sold before. It's really simple, quite fun actually (as long as you don't run into trolls).

how much extra did you end up paying?

i had an experience wherei was bidding for a lovely iron bed. i was winning right till the end..till someone outbid me by a pound. i was gutted. if i had found out it was someone i knew..i would have kicked their ass.

An extra $20! And shit One night alone (solo) ain't even worth that!

I've had a few transactions on eBay myself. I'm selling off a Pentium III 533 MHz processor with heat sink and dual fans right now. And I actually have someone with one bid on it!

you're right...it ain't worth that.

those copies of ONA on e-bay sell for some crazy-ass prices. it's a good little EP, but it ain't the ark of the covenant. i think people go all into a cabbage patch doll frenzy and get caught up in the consumerist hunt, and forget about what they're actually bidding for. but hey - it can only help the reputation of this album and make prince look even better, so like whatevs...

Yeah, I was ahamed of myself after I finally got it. I had heard some samples at the club and was intrigued, then all of a sudden the samples were gone and he wasn't offering it in the retail part of the club. So, I got all obessive about it. I have bidded on it when it was going for much more than I paid for it and was like FUCK THAT!! Anything over a hundred is WAY TOO MUCH!! I did pay $50 for the one I bidded for.

I've seen those suckers go for over a hundred bucks on eBay...whenever I've bought out of print music from there, I always set a limit as to how much I'll pay and if they go over the limit, I just keep tryin'. I've yet to pay more than twenty bucks for anything I've sought out...but then again, I'm sure there's not a heap of demand for OOP Swans, Sandra Bernhard and Tragic Mulatto CDs....
