Everyone that I know that uses EBAY is totally addicted. I know what you mean! I've searched for auction sites over the past 5 years and have never found any that come close to eBay. I have yet to find another site that compares to eBay's quantity and quality of items, the ability to view feedback on sellers/buyers, and the multitude of items offered. Even though the auctions only last for days, common items number in the thousands. You really have to narrow your searches or succumb to browser overload. I have tried to find anything collectible that is not sold on eBay; it can't be done. Matchbooks, Lladro, Hummel, David Winter, baseball cards, snow babies, coins, stamps, clowns, magazines, etc. This IPO will skyrocket. IMHO, the thing to do is buy in early on Thursday. Hold until it shows some weakness. Sell and then buy the next dip. Repeat this process, improving your position until the price settles down. Good luck everyone, Jim
