    Default Bidding on a Japanese school bag ...

    IM NOT SAD

    Ive wanted one for years, so I thought Im single (no-one to tell me how to spend my money), I have my loan through, why the hell not? But part of me is saying "Do you really need another bag?" And the other half is saying "No I dont, but Ive wanted one for so long and they look cool!"

    But have you ever bought or bidded on something and then thought "Do I really need this?"

    what do you think online shopping is for, buying useful stuff? No! It's for buying pointless and random things, then you get addicted and go bankrupt. That's what happens when you register on ebay.

    The first thing I ever bid for on eBay was a Digital Camera, I didn't want it, it was just a test bid to get use to it. I only put a bid of £16 on, but had Zero feedback, the other bidders must of thought I was a Nigerian Scammer as they never botherd to up their bids. I ended up winning it and still haven't used it.

    I don't use eBay.

    But I did buy a bunch of useless stuff over the internet before. For example, all these funky looking styluses for my nintendo DS, and all those cute DS screen cleaners. But enough is enough :aimblush:

    Hehe, I have a ton of bags, and shirts but I still buy more. I don't need them at all, I just want them. So yeah I buy stuff I don't need all the time, I think I have bought about 80 things from Ebay so far. XD

    I usually buy anime or game soundtracks on eBay, they have some good prices. I don't NEED them, per se, but if I have the money, sure.

    Unless it's Disgaea rated. Because I do physically need all of the Disgaea crap I can get my hands on.

    A Japanese School Bag? Fair enough ...

    I bidded on and eventually won a Squall Leonhart Griever Necklace and Gunblade Pendant set. A few months after receiving the item, I began asking the question: 'just what the hell am I supposed to do with this now?!'

    Needless to say, these days, I only buy what I need.
    "As the days go by, we face the increasing inevitability that we are alone in a godless,
    uninhabited, hostile and meaningless universe. Still, you've got to laugh, haven't you?"

    I don't use eBay because I do not like how it works. Amazon all the way for me

    I have to stay away from it though, in case I buy unecessary stuff.

    Most of everything I bid on is stuff that I don't need. I don't think that I've ever bid on anything practical, except for my camera case.

    I just spent my remaining money on a CD (I'm fairly poor), and, having just received it, I found out I was bidding on the wrong bloody album. Now that bites a bit.
