Hi. My name is Putra and I'm a compulsive eBay shopper.

"Hi Putra. Why don't you tell us your story"

Well, ever since I joined eBay, and discovered that I can pay for my items using bank transfer instead of Paypal, I can't stop shopping. In the last few days, I have bought three DVDs and a couple of video games. Might seem small to you guys, who I'm sure are.. worse than me, in terms of.. compulsive spending. You with your eBay-purchased shoes and shirts.

"That's true"

The thing is, it's so cheap to buy stuff from eBay. Check this out, I bought Blade Runner: Director's Cut for only 8 dollars. The actual retail price is 40 dollars. Might seem like a small amount to the rest of you, but this is where it begins. And before I know it, I'd be buying a new SLR and eventually, a boat or a house or a pony or something.

The way I see it, this is like having a JB Hi-Fi built next door. With much better prices and minus the emo kids. Oh yes.
