I agree with the others that it's nice knowing you're bidding against flesh and blood instead of a machine plugged into the wall. If you pay way too much at MastroNet you're comforted knowing that at least there were two idiots involved not just you. And it's hard to resell that lot to the underbidder when the underbidder's a machine.

On eBay, you get to know your regular cyber competitors. There's a 20 year old female college student in Wales of all places who has a same very particular interest as me. When a particular item shows up on eBay, it's going either to Seattle or Wales. I've talked to her a couple of times and she's personable and bright enough, but you can bet it chaps my hide each time I lose out to that girl with a Welsh accent. I've been waiting a long time for her allowence to run out, but that hasn't happened. I'm starting to worry that her parents are doctors.
