ooo, I broke my ban  Hopping Mad but honestly, I actually saved myself money, if you can believe it  Roll Eyes Ive been looking for a framed ulysses butterfly, and they usually cost $au65-100, and I found one on ebay BIN $au15!!!!  Shocked too good an opportunity to miss, so I pounced.  its so pretty too. But my ban is still in place, that was just a little detour  Roll Eyes

I'd like to call to order another meeting of eBayaddicts Anonymous.  GOFU is about two months away from release, so it seemed like a good time to stop spending, start saving, and get ready for the big blitz at the end of April/beginning of May.  Therefore...

My name is Cindy and I have not purchased any trading cards since January 24.  Someone grant me the strength to resist eBay, even though certain Yak Shackers, who shall remain nameless (but you know who you are Wink ), send me links to auctions.

I know this can't be me...I stopped sending you links when I stopped watching eBay since Christmas. May I have the power to continue this streak.....  Oh wait, I just bought a UK burnt tent incdentive within the last month...didn't I Roll Eyes

That's okay, Sister Sara.  Start your ban from the day you bought the prop. Wink

OK so this means you don't want to hear about the absolutely amazing........  ROFL!

Case incentives don't really count.  After all Ebay is the only place most of will ever get one.  So technically Sara you are still on the wagon  Wink

I officially join the ban!  I bought a Riven PS game last week, but no cards for about a month now.  I did buy a couple of things from 2 fabulous Yak Shakers (you know who you are), but I don't count those.  I swear not to buy anything else off ebay, or to browse for cards on ebay until GOFU comes out.  Angel

Im not on a ban, but on light spending duties...trying to buy very little, just a few last cheaper cards that I need...plus Ive sold more than Ive bought, so I figure that counts for something  Roll Eyes

*puts hand up sheepishly*

This is the founder of Ebayaddicts Anonymous. I admit that I have severely lapsed from my initial successful giving up of Ebay. I hope that the newest members may provide me with the support I need to get back on track.

Its OK.
I know how you feel.

The usual, "I wont look for a week on e-Bay" trick never works for me.
I just cant imagine all those great cards going to someone else!  Roll Eyes
I try to limit my self apurchase from e-Bay one a month, or 2 at the most.

It is hard to keep away though.
Must... find.... help...  Angel
