EBay Obsession
I may need some kind of professional intervention. (As if that wasn't obvious.) I am not alone in my compulsionI am however, consistent.
Being that I am almost always less than happy with the selection offered to me by AAFES on most things I want to purchase... And it is against my personal religion to pay those high retail prices for the name brand merchandise they do offer (I don't believe in name brands, either)... I have turned to ebay for the majority of the things I buy.
Paypal is my friend.
My walls are hung with the trappings of "Country Decor Lot"s, and two fabulous oil paintings I got for less than 100 bucks. The gold chain I wear, my right hand ring, and my shoes... all ebay.
My daughter is playing at my feet with a doll from ebay too, and her closet is stuffed full of those great bargain lots of 4T clothes. My son plays ebay purchased games on his GBA- which also came from ebay. Even my cats are not immune, as they wear "soft paws" I purchase from a seller on ebay of pet supplies.
In a few weeks, I will decorate a birthday cake with the Disney Princess stuff I also got from the infamous auction site.
It's not all my fault- I just love a good sale- and the BX hardly knows what that is. A good sale, I mean. And the selection sucks. Wanna try something funny? Go into the computer and electronics section of your local exchange and ask them for a Mac compatible anything... The look on their faces is priceless.
I shall stick with my auctioning sickness- at least it is cheaper then being a mall-rat. And I am not as bad as This Lady. At least, not yet. If I should ever get that bad, I trust I will have my ass kicked.
