eBay

This is sort of O.T., but I will ask it anyway:

Does anyone actually buy other things on eBay, other than collector coins?

I bought a Cisco 678 DSL router last year.

I have one sitting in my closet you can have for $10 + Shipping if you want another...

I buy Furry Tanned Kangaroo Scrotum Sacks on Ebay.

Dabigkahuna · January 6, 2005 9:04AM

I hunt around for civil war and Custer memorabilia occasionally. Once I get to know and like a seller then I end up doing less on Ebay.

Ouch....

Louis · January 6, 2005 9:05AM

Antique tools and trench art.

ziggy29 · January 6, 2005 9:06AM

Lots of stuff for my old Atari 800 computer and a bunch of old, cheap-but-decent copies of Alaska Geographic. A few other things here and there, too.

Oh, and a few *books* about coins, too.

paigowjohnny · January 6, 2005 9:08AM

Bought a couple of autographed pictures...Nikki Cox and Mariah Carey.

K6AZ · January 6, 2005 9:09AM

I buy all sorts of other stuff, including CDs, DVDs, computer items, and glass petri dishes for soaking coins in acetone. My last non-coin purchase was a new in the box Nikon 5400 as a backup to my 8800, and I got it for $100 less than I could buy it anywhere else for.

ksteelheader · January 6, 2005 9:11AM

Dolls

21Walker · January 6, 2005 9:14AM

I bought a new Polarus (pool vacuum) at $175 savings, a few floats for the pool, Titanic plastic model kit for the grandson.......all at savings even with the shipping.......Rick

zzzz · January 6, 2005 9:16AM

Yes

Jdurg · January 6, 2005 9:16AM

I purchase some of the elements for my periodic table collection, but I do less of that now that I've gotten to know some of the dealers and do a lot more direct business outside of E-Bay.

cosmicdebris · January 6, 2005 9:18AM

Furbies ( I had someone that wanted one for Christmas )

Books ( Numismatic ones mainly )

That's a nice offer, but it was my third so I'm fully redundant.

Russ, NCNE

Dave99B · January 6, 2005 9:20AM

No scrotum bags (so far) but I did buy vacuum bags (much cheaper that I could have bought retail – probably 50% of retail price).

Dave

kryptonitecomics · January 6, 2005 9:24AM

Just porn and inflatable dolls?

Goober · January 6, 2005 9:32AM

<< I buy Furry Tanned Kangaroo Scrotum Sacks on Ebay. >>

I have one in my garage (seriously) sealed from Australia that I'll sell you for $10+ shipping?

I buy electronics, stamps, memorabilia, clothing, tools, books, tried to buy my last car there. Pretty much anything I can get a good deal on from a good dealer.

dthigpen · January 6, 2005 9:34AM

<< I have one in my garage (seriously) sealed from Australia that I'll sell you for $10+ shipping? >>

Not a bad deal! However, I already have plenty of 'extras'. I used them this christmas to give presents in. Thanks for the offer though

ER · January 6, 2005 9:36AM

Not yet.

Sounds like a great giftwrapping option for those famous dick coins I keep reading about on here.

I used to buy other stuff on ebay but not in a long time. In fact, my first item I ever bought off of ebay was an Apple Newton PDA back in '99

mommam17 · January 6, 2005 9:44AM

Yes, tickets to nascar races like Bristol and Richmond.

tjkillian · January 6, 2005 9:47AM

Mad magazines and Mad comics.

Tom

AuldFartte · January 6, 2005 9:48AM

Lots of stuff: books, CD's, DVD's, and, when I used to collect them, Zippo lighters.

Coinhusker1 · January 6, 2005 9:49AM

Video games, camera equipment, and my wife bought a Dooney & Burke purse.

jdimmick · January 6, 2005 9:49AM

I bought a fish tank filter once at what was a real good price until the seller hit me with the shipping. It ended up being higher total cost than I could of bought it locally.

pharmer · January 6, 2005 9:51AM

I bought an out-of-print book by Kerry's ex about what an ahole he is and how he messed her head up so bad.

Millertime · January 6, 2005 10:09AM

My last non-coin purchases were:

A 17" LCD Monitor for the computer I built form scratch, Garfield comic books, and Pokemon!! At least I got one thing for me!!

BowTieCoins2 · January 6, 2005 10:14AM

Yes, and my kids often like me to get them stuff too.

Fairlaneman · January 6, 2005 10:19AM

Yep. I buy and sell Ford car parts. Betcha cant guess for what model of Ford. Also two coin banks were bought for the wife. One was cool and the other was trash.

Ken

Ronnie35226 · January 6, 2005 10:28AM

Yes. Lots of different things

thebeav · January 6, 2005 10:42AM

Everything I can !!!

agentjim007 · January 6, 2005 10:48AM

I think I'm gonna buy the 4 series of Red Dwarf on DVD. If you haven't seen Red Dwarf the earlier series are a riot.

lordmarcovan · January 6, 2005 11:31AM

I've assembled a small collection of vintage postcards from my hometown, just fer the heck of it. Using eBay made that a lot easier.

dtkk49a · January 6, 2005 12:44PM

I bought 5 acres of land in Colorado off eBay about 5 years ago. Still own it.

littlebear329 · January 7, 2005 12:09AM

i buy rare records and cd's, sometimes hard to find movies

dimples · January 7, 2005 12:12AM

Prethen · January 7, 2005 12:54AM

I bought an Onkyo receiver.

Steve27 · January 7, 2005 12:59AM

I bought a shop manual for my car, $10 Plus $8 for shipping, but it is bigger than a phone book.

Merc · January 7, 2005 1:10AM

Ebay has it all. I saw one poster say he buys things for his old Atari 800. I sold an Atari 800 with the extras on ebay about 2 years ago. Maybe he bought it??

I've bought clothes, books, a DVD player for $5 (yes, it works fine), a high quality backpacking tent, large backpack. Ebay has it all!

RedneckHB · January 7, 2005 1:12AM

My first buy was a Swarovski binocular. Hasnt been anything but coins since

blackwood · January 7, 2005 1:50AM

Comic books!
