Is it just me, or does anyone else think that eBay is just an online jumble
sale? Not that I have anything against jumble sales - I can often be found
rummaging about in charity shops - but it seems to me that there are a lot
of people who are happy to use eBay, but wouldn't be seen dead at Oxfam. Its
the same thing, isn't it? You're buying someone else's cast-offs? So why is
buying from eBay alright, while buying from a charity shop is something that
only old ladies who smell of lavender and mint imperials do?
