8. If I buy this "Banned By E-Bay" CD will Meg & Pierre still change my e-mail settings?
9. Hmmmmm, the TOS says, "NO PAYPAL" I should write the seller to see if they take PayPal...

Did I read the TOS?
Did I check sellers feedback?
If I win bid, pay postage, etc, can I still make a profit when I resell it?
Do I want this just because............!
Did I really THINK about this?

17. Why is it that nobody bid on this in 7 days, then when I put my $1 bid out there, 15 other people have driven the price up to $50?
18. Gee, the pics are blurry and too dark to see clearly, the 1 line description is lacking... I wonder if the item will be just as described?

Ebay bid consideration headache # 343:
If I bid on this item should I bid with a real high proxy bid so if EBAY goes down I won't get shut out and take the chance that EBAY will not shut down and my proxy bid will only cause other bidders to run up my bid because they are also wondering if Ebay will go down so they want their bid to be the winner in the outside chance this happens too?
But then me proxy bid might not be high enough since other bidders are considering Ebay going down too so maybe I should raise my proxy bid even higher???
GEE......this price is getting to look like retail.
Man .....this is too hard..........is K-mart open?

21. Have I emailed the seller to see exactly what shipping will be?
22. Does the seller know what he is selling?
23. Has he answered [all]of my questions in the email?
24. Does the item have all relevant serial numbers?
25. Are all blemishes noted?
26. How will the seller ship?
27. How much is shipping?
28. Does the seller have any more of these items I might want to bid on?
29. Will the auction end at a time that I can snipe it?
30. Does the seller sell these items on a regular basis?
31. What's the feedback?
32. What kind of feedback is left?
33. What do previous bidders say about the guy? (email if I can't "self insure"
Aside from photos, description and the usual requisites, those are some of the things running through my head before I lay down serious cash.
(shipping...check it twice!)

35. Gee... is that box really worth $325.00?
36. Is that quilt really made by the Amish or is it an imported quilt? (oh I see these all the time on eBay... people making claims that a quilt is Amish made and it is really an imported quilt worth about $25.00 and the bidder has bidded $300.00 for it)
37. If I buy that edible product from this stranger and I eat it... will it kill me or just make me ill?
38. If I buy this weed (oregano) and smoke it... will it get me high like the seller claims it will?
39. Did they really wash those undergarments like they say they did per ebays rules?
(oh gross... people buying other peoples dirty undergarments on eBay... I wore these underwear for 10 days and I did wash them per eBays rules...but my washing machine is on the fritz and it runs through all it's cycles but I can figure out what the hell these hoses connect to that are coming out the back of the machine washer... errrrrr GROSS)
