To friends this might come as a surprise, as I\u2019m someone who is using the Internet very extensively. But until yesterday I wasn\u2019t part of that fast growing community that buys and sells everything, from pure garbage to cars and planes, 24 hours a day. My first eBay experience goes back about six months or so. It was my duty to buy a wedding present, an \u201colive tree sponsorship\u201d, for about 40 euros (about half the normal price).

It was a very intense fight the last 4 minutes or so to actually win the bid, but I made the deal.<\/p>\n<p>Now I have my very own account! I haven\u2019t used it yet, but I doubt it will take long before I find something interesting to spend my worthy money on.
