Just sayin'. It could work...
Seriously? People buy shit? They don't eat it for breakfast do they? (acknowledgements to happy Gilmore)
I love this idea ! Those in power and the banksters are so desperate to revive consumerism in America but when it comes to the crunch there is so little needed in life to be happy. And it's certainly not the purchasing of gadgets and other superfluous things that have driven the economy in the past. Starve the beast!
Don't forget, eBay is also the parent company PayPal, which apparently blocks accounts when asked to do so by government. I'd say, avoid both eBay and PayPal and find better alternatives.
I don't need any of my shit. it's the main reason I have a toilet in the house plus is only enriches Wall St as ebay in a Wall St darling. I would use craigslist preferring to NOT give ebay the extra fees to sell my shit.
