I've got nothing to hide -- I'm LONG, simply because I'm a man -- and men, in general, love the SHRP stores. In fact, the only store I ever regularly visit when my wife drags me out shopping is SHRP -- and now that I have the Internet site to go to, I will do all my shopping there.

Also, I always have a hard time selecting gifts for people, because today they already have everything that is popular -- and with SHRP you can order gifts that recipients probably don't have and are excited to get ("first impression" is the only thing that counts when gift-giving).

Further, I truly believe their auction site will be widely followed and used -- again because the items they will be auctioning are FUN items (again, "first impression").

Remember, people who receive gifts are not likely to return them, and look at yourself -- sitting with items you want to sell me, and you probably bought them yourself (because of impulse buying) and didn't return them.

I must say that I have purchased items from SHRP that I truly love, as well as ones that I would want to sell someone. That having been said, my overall impression of SHRP is positive, because I don't expect every item I buy to satisfy me after the impulse purchase has turned to buyers remorse. I love buying new and different things -- it makes me feel good, and I love it when a recipient gets excited (even if only temporarily).

Please don't be angry with me -- I denote a tinge of sarcasm in your response. I hope I'm wrong, and I certainly don't mean to be rude or caustic to you.

All the best.
