Retail tharapy 12/08/2009
"We can stay young by focusing on a dream instead of on a regret." Anonymous LOL, A great quote to justify a little retail therapyJ. I won my auction bid for the camera of my gray nomad dreams, on EBay, on Monday night. I hope my 99% new Canon IXUS 990 IS arrives today. My camera was posted yesterday by registered mail. I bought one from a good seller, on Ebay that was two months old, still under warranty. I paid top dollar due to another last 5 second, snipe bid. I paid about $250. less than the current listing price and over $200. less than today’s BigPond, shopping discount price. The only comparable price seller on the day would have been to buy from a Hong Kong, importers, and I am cautious about buying brand name electronic from Hong Kong, as while they might be good quality, they are often copies, not worth the same price to begin with. The night after I won my EBay auction bid, A Current Affair, did a story on how cameras purchased on line from Hong Kong are usually copies, not the real thing. On top of this buy, on Monday night my wireless internet modem stopped working so I needed to buy a new one on Tuesday and I had a busy day letting everyone know I have a change in email address as a result. My new contact is Email Kathy I will be spending time this week changing my email contact details around my web sites. Comments Comments are closed. |
