Do you shop on eBay? Sell?

I get so many great deals on eBay. It's not as good as it used to be back in the day before everyone was trying to make a living on it, but it's still good. I love it!
 
I shop on their occasionally. I've never sold anything, but keep thinking I should. I have a zillion stampin' Up sets just collecting dust in my basement.
 
I shop there all the time! Especially because there are some products that I don't find here in Brazil. It takes a bit longer to get here but it worths the wait! :D

At one point, a few years ago, I was into buying rubber stamps off of eBay, and had to stop because I realized I was getting addicted to it, and was spending about as much on the stamps as they were worth! Plus, it ticked me off about those people who would swoop in at the last second and grab a purchase. I forget what the term was for them, but it wasn't a kind one. So I stopped.
 
I buy older lines of Gymbo clothing off Ebay sometimes so DD can still be cute, but I can still be cheap. :giggle
 
Sniping is the term for it.

It is useful though!

Sometimes you can get the best stuff on Ebay if you are patient and do your research. My boss does it for stuff for work all the time. I've found some nice scrap stuff like albums that way too.
 
I was never an avid eBay shopper. But a few years ago, you used to be able to get designer jeans for like $40 brand-new on eBay. I bought some Joe's Jeans and 7 For All Mankind jeans back then. Now I don't see those kind of steals anymore.
 
I've been an ebay fisher price addict for quite some time now. The old-school fisher price toys. I've had a couple of bad experiences lately, so I'm giving it a rest, but it was horribly addicting for awhile. Kennedy has soooooo many things. :p
 
I have bought a couple things here and there. I'm not a smart buyer, because I typically go on eBay when I desperately want something, but the stuff I wanted was never expensive and I was lucky, so it worked out for me. I can recall only three purchases in the past few years - two were my vintage deer, the other my vintage dymo label maker.

The year i had Caleb, many Xmas gifts came from there. It was just waaaayyy easier shopping online then bundling up a two month old. I was kind of addicted at the time. I bought a lot of baby boy clothes that way and being in Canada, not everything was available. Now a lot more big names ship here... At a cost. I barely shop there now but I'm trying to buy this Momster tuck bedding for my youngest and I keep hoping that someone will ship it for cheaper than $44. The bedding is on Amazon for a great price, but for some reason, Amazon won't ship it to me... So I may hav to bite the bullet and get it from eBay.
