If there was no eBay what would we do?
It has helped me complete collections of various items and got me parts for projects very quickly. All just by sitting at home in front of a computer screen.
Without eBay I would have to meet people, ask questions, look in papershop windows, search magazine ads maybe wait years to find that elusive vintage magazine for my collection, maybe even visit an antique show.
Now I can still visit the antique show where I can pick up something, the vendor gives me a price and as I look at the item sceptically he says to me "Thats a good price, they sell for........ on ebay" I refrain from saying "Why don't you sell it on eBay then?" But think blissfully back to the days before eBay and all the fun I had searching for these things.
Oh well, thats progress.
Yeah but just think of all that quality time you've saved that you can now waste it on forums.
