    I spent over €10,000 on an auction last year without even seeing the item :eek: A year later it's still working and i'm happy with it though :)

    Oh, and what's yer feedback score? I'm about to hit 30 with 100% positive... I love being watching the score slowly go up :D

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    I bought an Abercrombie jumper once for about €45. Otherwise I just buy little bits and pieces. I've sold a few things too and still have a feedback rating of %100

    Laptop for €500 about 5 years ago. Feedback 130 (awaiting 2) 100%, bidding 6, selling 2. :D eBay account is linked to my bank account as well as my credit card so have to behave myself sometimes and not go overboard with the DVD purchases.

    Most expensive thing I've bought was probably an N95 when it was first released. I paid about 620 Euro for it.

    Bought my last two cars on ebay, first one i didn't see it till it arrived on a transporter and the last one i went over to sw england to pick it up and drove it back.
    Both have been 100% and i made about €3k profit after selling the first one, a year after owning it.

    Bought a Dell laptop from their outlet place for €780. Have 105 positive feedback - 97.9%. Got bad feedback twice because the feedback system is so skewed in the sellers favour. Left bad feedback for one after 5 working day delivery turned into 5 weeks and another when I copped the seller was using a fake bidder after paying.
