#redditisawaste

Being on ebay all month feels like a reddit thread; unending and ultimately after all that time sifting through thread after thread, item after item, you realize that none of it was quite satisfying. It’s like hiring an escort; time spent enthusiastically at first but no money in your wallet and tons of regrets over time. So, that’s it! I am capping my efforts here. To be completely out of the closet, I may have created this ideology after my shoegazing sesh this morning in the closet. I’m going with don’t ask don’t tell on this one. 

Final items listed for FSBO and final labeled FSBEBayValet items headed out the door today. Burned through my entire morning and the early part of my afternoon. Grrrrrrr. Perhaps this time next month however, I will be dancing around with my new laptop. One can only hope. But ebay you and I are finished, and not because you were founded by an immigrant from Iran. Desire is dead in this hooker now, but thank you for the yucks and the bucks. 

Final evaluation on this month’s journey-- I win overall. Not too much work, don’t really know the financial gains yet as these things take time. Which begs the question, would it have been easier to just fence the stuff at a pawn shop? I will never know. I find pawn shops terribly depressing and have stepped inside only a couple of times and refuse to go again if I don’t have to. All the engagement rings just lined up in the cases feel like the ultimate blvd. of broken dreams. You wonder if they replaced their lovers for a love of drugs or just a bunch of hustlers of hearts out there. Maybe there was a prostitute involved?
