Do you ever shop on ebay? I haven't bought anything from there since I was a broke 14 year old. I bought a Thinkpad 410i for 40 dollars I believe and it was my treasure. I honestly have no idea what happened to it though. I've been looking for another nice older Thinkpad to learn to Libreboot with so I've been searching for a X200 without the tablet features

I shop exclusively on eBay, but it kinda sucks dick now. Everything is scalped, EVERYTHING, even stuff that's not been in production into decades.

Phone from 2012? Kill yourself! (⁠・⁠∀⁠・⁠) GPU from 2018? Kill yourself! (⁠・⁠∀⁠・⁠)

Social media influencers don't help with technology either - fifteen content creators spread between YouTube and Instagram is all it takes to make a Soviet camera lens from the 1980s that I want end up costing 700$.

it has been a while
I used to buy a lot of shit on ebay, but that was when shit was much cheaper
my last purchase there was a few years ago

honestly, shit really has become expensive
I remember when things were so much cheaper that I used to buy Sega Saturn games on Amazon - eBay was slightly cheaper but I was being lazy and the Amazon sellers were usually closer so I didn't have to wait so much
probably should go see how much I can make on ebay with some of them lmao (´人｀)

all the good stuff fizzled out eventually... i remember buying a joblot of 4 2009 macbook pros for 20 quid a few years back. nowadays you have to reallllly search for anything enticing....
theres still some really good deals (old surfaces are suprisingly abundant, and drawing tablets are worth NOTHING there) but they're real specific.

I miss cheap faulty electronics (´人｀)
