Ebay auctions


Question Posted Tuesday April 28 2015, 10:27 am

I will be 24 next month, famale. I work a lot so in my free time I find myself bidding on auctions in ebay. Normally I bid on things $1.50 or less but depending sometimes I will bid $5 or so. Any one have suggestions on things that I can search for to auction on?? :) Up for suggestions.

Hi mate. I've got to actually question your motive for bidding here. The only way I can see this ending is by you having a house full of things you don't particularly need or want, which you purchased for the sole reason that they cost $1-50 to $5-00. The whole auction/bidding/winning environment can be very compelling, exciting even. And thus, more than a little addictive. Be a little careful. I've known people become ebay 'shopaholics'. Basically, if you don't need it, it ain't a bargain however cheaply you get it. It's quite easy to say that if you can easily afford whatever the habit is costing you, what's the problem? Maybe no problem. But what's it actually gaining you? Except a house full of stuff you don't ever use or look at? A collection might be a harmless idea if you're really keen on the ebay experience. I'd make it something small, like decorative sewing thimbles or something. They won't take over the house. How about LOOKING and congratulating yourself every time you RESIST bidding for something you don't really want. Make a note of what you've saved by NOT bidding. End of the month, add it up and treat yourself to something you really want. One of the designers (forgotten his name) said "Have nothing in your home you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful." Not a bad idea for a clutter-free and visually pleasing lifestyle, eh?
