eBay Awesomeness

Based upon feedback about yesterday's post, awesomeness is sweeping the country, and maybe the globe. From New York to Bombay, the readers found it awesome. That is just awesome. Speaking of awesome, I sold something on eBay. I never sold anything on eBay before, so I was delighted to find a guy in Texas was will to pay $115 for something I almost gave to Goodwill. Who would have imagined that my grandmother's wedding ring could fetch $115? Not me, that's for sure. Awesome. Okay, that part is a lie. I was cleaning out the back room the other day and I came across a set of biblical commentaries from the old days before I gave up religion as a bad idea. Why I've kept these books is a mystery, but when I was rearranging, there they were. The entire series cost me about $70 back in the early seventies. I did some internet research and found a several sets selling from retail booksellers for a couple of hundred bucks. I listed them on eBay for $100, plus $15 shipping. After eBay, PayPal and UPS gets their cut, I should net a cool $80. Not too bad for something I would have gladly given away.
