I couldn't afford to donate, but I had a few bucks left in my PayPal account

[Elwood P Dowd]

so I gave some of it to DU. There was once a time when I had some "real" money in that account, but now I'm broke like most Americans. The last few listings on eBay yielded exactly one bid for twenty bucks on an item that use to sell for five times that price. eBay use to be so much fun years ago, but then Bushit and the repuke crime family took control of the economy.

2. welcome to the club

I used to always donate at east $20.00 since 2001 but this time I could only donate $5.00 as I have been unemployed for over two months. Sucks but at least I could donate something.

3. I know what you mean.I collected dolls from West germany

For an investment and I used to sell them for up to 1000 a piece.Now i sell them for 200 if I am lucky.That is a 70 % loss so I just keep them instead of almost giving them away.I had paid over 20,000 for them .Now I could get around 4000 from them

4. yeah, why does the GOP keep praising the woman who ruined eBay?

She drove the company into the ground. And there was talk of her being VP? Please. I miss the old eBay tremendously.

5. Small dealers like me have pretty mush given up on it.

The repukes worship the whores who are out to make a fast buck and fuck the rest of us. It's just their nature and has been for over 100 years.
