If I didn't have a bad experience nearly every time I bought off ebay, I might go for this.
Still... wow. And fairly cheap.

If the person has a good history and feedback rating, with Paypal as a payment option, usually it's legit. I bought a Super Bowl ticket off eBay from an established seller, and everything went smoothly. Look for verified people, that's my advice!

... that and I haven't the patience to wait for anything for more than an hour. Patience. The main reason I can't get to half my lecture halls.

hehe, I don't blame you. However since it's me selling it I assure you I am the most reliable seller you will ever deal with. ;D ...well maybe.

Oh! Is it you? Then I may actually consider it. You know, having an internet lynch mob at my disposal plus your reputation on this forum to hang and shoot many times Imma take a look at it later today. What's the dollar to the pound?

What's the dollar to the pound? Usually about 1/2 for a rough guess. Two dollars to a pound, approximately.

The pound/dollar ratio is anywhere from 2/3 to 5/8. I don't think it has ever been 1/2 NS.

I just used to use 2:1 as a rough guess last year when I was repurchasing all the LW books from eBay auctions. Gave me a safe estimate for the most part. Easy calculations are a good thing. ;D

HOLY [nuts]! That is quite a story. Wow... nothing like fire to end a project once and for all, right? Yeah, I don't know what I'd do if I lost my work. Which is why I have it safety boxed in several locations off my computer, guarded by Cerebruses (Cerebi?). The last time I needed to get them I had to hire two adventurers to slay the Cerebus.

You mean Cerberus, the three-headed dog of Hades? In D&D philosophy, that would immediately convert to a lower case, become a generic term for any three-headed creature and maybe even become an adjective - cerbric? So, really, I guess you could have "cerberuses".

Or "cerberi", perchance?

That's your choice. After all, it's "cerebri" up to you...
