...is that other people keep bidding on things I want.

Too bloody true - it's just taken me five days to get a mirror lens at an affordable price, because people kept bidding silly money on them.

I have the opposite problem -- no one is outbidding me, and so I have seven black ink cartridges on their way to me, which will take me a while to use up.

Remind me why Ebay is a good idea ...

A beautiful plan, with just one ugly flaw ...

It also saves trudging round all the garden centres in Kent...

Then suddenly you find you successfully bought that LAN card for a penny and with a realisic postage charge as well - I dont think the seller was too impressed with the price he got but he did leave a positive feedback and I got my blue star! Yippee!

Oh, it was still sealed in its cellophane wrapper as well - brand new and now installed and working! Thanks eBay!
