Hi, just a dad and his son selling things from our house and garage sales! Thanks for checking us out, new items added all the time! I've been an ebay member since 2002 and am just getting started selling. Thanks for any support and feedback! College fund here we come!
I love the show Extras, starring Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant. When I bought the DVDs I was excited, however these discs did not play in my DVD player because of the region code. American players use the NTSC format, while British and other foreign discs use the PAL format. This is very important! If your player doesn't play PAL, then your purchase is a waste. Also the region code has to match. Extras is terrific, it borrows some of the same ideas as The Office, using no laugh track and uncomfortable humor. I enjoy the predicaments the two lead characters find themselves in. Racial and other sensitive issues are not taboo for Gervais and Merchant who use uneasy silences as comic gold. Each episode cameos a different guest star such as Samuel L. Jackson, Ben Stiller and Vinnie Jones. Great comedy from two of todays comic heavyweights.

Fake, forgery lies and eBay
I decided to read this book because I like books about fraud and crime. This book did not dissapoint, the story was very real and something I knew nothing about. It tells the story of Ken Walton's downward spiral in the shady world of art speculation on internet auctions. His fraudelent listings on eBay are legendary and made the front page of several major newspapers. At one point one of his forged paintings was bid up to $135,805!! If you like books about fraud, scams or deception I would recommend this book. Also recommended: American Roulette by Richard Markus, The Art of the Steal by Frank Abagnale, God Wants You To Roll by John Phillips III and Confessions of a Master Jewel Thief by Bill Mason.
