You've completely missed the point there. Ebay's for buying stuff you don't need, ideally defective or stolen stuff you don't need.

Now if you were just a bit more of a resourceful entrepreneur, you'd sell the info on here for 50p a throw. At least you'd get your investment back.....well, maybe not.

Stuff I don't need? I think the best thing I bought that I don't need is a limited edition of a full size Mohawk gremlin, cast and painted but the original painter from the original mold. That was expensive to ship from ebay!



29" wide and 28" high!

It's great for Halloween! Sit it in the window with an up light and we get no kids knocking at all.

Yeah, sorry, of course.

I see where I've gone wrong there, obvious really innit? - When someone points it out to you.
