Err... I hope no one thinks this is in anyway unusual behavior, but I ... err... just put in bids for a Gravis Ultrasound, a Soundblaster AWE32, and a Yamaha DB50XG daughterboard.
I think I'm going mad or something. Maybe it's Christmas coming or something but I'm not characteristically this self-indulgent (or spendy). I'd already decided to buy most people's presents tomorrow, so maybe it's a case of expensive selfless shopping = equally expensive selfish shopping.
I've only ever used ebay once before - to get the first Carmageddon game as nowhere else sold it, and now i bid for 2 OLD soundcards (2.5 including the Yamaha) in one go.
Am I losing it?

I made my first ever eBay purchases recently, but I'll be trying to keep that place as a *last* resort. As tempting as it may be. There's always the extra risks/scams and so on and, of course, its easy to get addicted 
You probably got some good bargains however, but I'd keep an eye on things
Hope you enjoy what you bought!

The last thing I bought off Ebay was a copy of Overseer...
Actually, I did not buy it off Ebay... seeing as the price was a little steep I contacted the seller and asked if they had anymore copies... and if so would they not mind selling me one outside of the auction, explaining to them that conversaion rates would kill me in the bidding.
They agreed!
As for other Tex Murphy products, with Jim TOG who needs Ebay!
Or should I say: eTOG?
-Cub. =o)
