Hi there...

Just thought for any one new to VW or looking for VW stuff etc... that i would mention i've discovered Ebay in the last few days and OMG.... (Louie Armstrong) WAT A WONDERFUL WORLD!!!!!!! :P

You'll be suprised at wat you can find on that site... its soooooooo much fun... but all i can say is 'GOD HELP my mother's credit card! :D:thumb' LMAO! My mother was the one to actually introduce me to it and now i think she's wishing she hadn't!

Our post box will b full soon with all this Betty Boop stuff arriving from the States... it'll b like having christmas 10 times over!
:bounce:bounce:bounce:bounce:bounce

Any way just thought i'd mention it and how awesome i think it is... tho there are a few things as a beginner that you learn pretty quick, just things to watch out for etc. BUT HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Who else has used it? Did u like it or hate it? Have any probs? wat did ya buy? :D;):thumb

Love to hear from yas

People say drugs are addictive, They obviously havent been on Ebay....

ITs a great thing....

That's where we got alot of ours VW stuff from.......But we also have a Hobby shop up here that's called Voglers and I think we have brought just about every VW in the shop.............

Yep, 15K of credit card is proof that Ebay is highly addictive..

Im so glad other ppl found or are finding it a totally amazing and addictive site... for a moment there i thought it was just me! LOL!

Tis awesome to see how many different things ppl collect and get off of ebay! :thumb:D:P

Be Careful to check that the things you bid on are for sale by people willing to post them to Australia, It took me over 6 months to organise a sound mixer that I bought to arive here from USA.
I spend $1300 on Ebay the first weekend I discovered it.
It can be worse than living walking distance from the casino.
but the novelty soon wears off after the creditcard monster takes a few big bite out of your wages.
But it is Fun indeed.
