Hi, my name is Topaz and my mother is an eBay addict - and she's NOT even on the 'NET!!!
Well, I told my mom that we've been going to the flea market to buy veggies (they're cheaper and fresher than the store) every Sunday. She told me to keep my eyes open for a little blue Pyrex bowl. She had a mixing/nesting set that she bought in 1962 and years ago, broke the smallest one. They are hard to find and antique dealers want way too much money for a complete set - which she doesn't want, she just wants the missing bowl.
So, I said, "Hey, I'll look on eBay." In about 20 seconds I found one dirt-cheap and made a bid.
She got so excited, she wanted me to check on a missing glass. Found it.
Then on some perfume bottles that she was missing one of. Found it.
And more. And more. And ...
Finally I had to scream "STOP! Mom, let's just do this one at a time, ok? Let's get the bowl first and then LATER we'll bid on the others."
For the first time ever, THANK GODDESS my mom doesn't have Internet connection or she would have just blown a wad of money... hehehe
