Do you buy crap you don't need on eBay?

[narcotic]

I was just looking for something around the house and while doing so I realized how much crap I got off eBay which I never actually use, just because I thought it was a bargain when I got it. I'm guessing most of you don't but what about other ppl. you know?

I don't buy much from ebay, but looking back at what I've bought the vast majority of things were things i probably could have gone without. So Yes?

Yep, that's pretty much me.
Though now I'm starting to contemplate the idea that if someone was dumb enough to buy them (me...) at the first place, I might be able to find another person I can sell this crap to..

No, I'd have to say I don't buy stuff I don't need online or at B&M stores.

I bought some extra socket 370 heatsinks in 2000 and am just putting them to use now. The ball bearings on the fans were wearing out on the current ones.

I've got extra power supplies too. Never know when you gonna need it.

WEIRD AL YANKOVIC LYRICS

"eBay"

Yeah
A used ... pink bathrobe
A rare ... mint snowglobe
A Smurf ... TV tray
I bought on eBay

My house ... is filled with this crap
Shows up in bubble wrap
Most every day
What I bought on eBay

Tell me why (I need another pet rock)
Tell me why (I got that Alf alarm clock)
Tell me why (I bid on Shatner's old toupee)
They had it on eBay

I'll buy ... your knick-knack
Just check ... my feedback
"A++!" they all say
They love me on eBay

Gonna buy (a slightly-damaged golf bag)
Gonna buy (some Beanie Babies, new with tag)
(From some guy) I've never met in Norway
Found him on eBay

I am the type who is liable to snipe you
With two seconds left to go, whoa
Got Paypal or Visa, what ever'll please ya
As long as I've got the dough

I'll buy ... your tchotchkes
Sell me ... your watch, please
I'll buy (I'll buy, I'll buy, I'll buy ...)
I'm highest bidder now

(Junk keeps arriving in the mail)
(From that worldwide garage sale) (Dukes Of Hazard ashtray)
(Hey! A Dukes Of Hazard ashtray)
Oh yeah ... (I bought it on eBay)

Wanna buy (a PacMan Fever lunchbox)
Wanna buy (a case of vintage tube socks)
Wanna buy (a Kleenex used by Dr. Dre, Dr. Dre)
(Found it on eBay)

Wanna buy (that Farrah Fawcet poster)
(Pez dispensers and a toaster)
(Don't know why ... the kind of stuff you'd throw away)
(I'll buy on eBay)

What I bought on eBay-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y

eBay sucks.

 

[BurnItDwn]

I have probably used ebay 50 times, but I've never bought any useless stuff. Also, I haven't bought anything through ebay in quite a few years.

 

[purbeast0]

you typed ppl. instead of people? that's 2 less characters ... what a time saver!

 

[AgaBoogaBoo]

I use eBay once or twice a year, and it's probably for a book.

 

[Modeps]

No. I have self control.

 

[misle]

eBay is such a hassle. If I cannot find what I'm looking for in a normal store or on Craigslist, then I look on eBay, but I only buy it from eBay if I absolutely need it.

 

[Anubis]

i cant recall the last time i used ebay, im guessing 2002-2003

 

[AmpedSilence]

i keep getting warnings that my "stock" on Half.com is going to get suspended if i don't log-in. That gives you an idea of how long it's been since i logged into eBay.

I dislike them for jacking up prices to sell and I dislike them for buying PayPal and turning it into utter shite. They were both great about 4 or 5 years years ago.

Unless ... Does 6 - 4 equal something else for you?

 

[dud]

It can be so painful to buy (or sell) on ebay I only buy what I really want or need. Things that cannot be procured locally for a reasonable cost.

who is this pontiflex guy? sounds like he's trying to impersonate me by using a similar name as mine.
i also do not disagree with everyone. you just can't read properly.

 

[nageov3t]

no.

I only shop on ebay when I'm looking for something specific (typically vintage)
