again with the trying to sell my stuff

First, the reasons:

1. I have stuff I don't want anymore. I mean, obviously.

2. With the change in schools coming up and no idea if I'm even getting in (probably), much less if I'll get any kind of scholarship, I'm going to need all the money I can get. Oh, and also my summer funding through the linguistics department is less than I get during the year.

3. I stupidly bid on a copy of Vib Ribbon on eBay, and now I am feeling pre-buyer's remorse; it was a stupid thing to do, and I don't have the money to spend, and I have like 5 days to even see if I'm going to spend the money. God, I have bought like one thing ever from eBay, and now is not the fucking time for me to get into that habit.

So what I'd like is to somehow come up with the $20 or so I would be out if I won the auction. (SO. stupid.) What happened is that I generally keep a small fund for personal fun (i.e. games) spending, which comes from stuff like my change jar. A couple of days ago, when I placed this bid, I didn't feel bad about dipping into this fund. However, in the midst of this uncertain financial/tuition situation, I need to be a little more discerning with even that money. It could turn out to be important.

This story sounds dumb and whiny now that I'm looking at it. But it's like 1:30 and not being able to get out of this Vib Ribbon auction that I'm probably not going to win seems like a [i]huge fucking crisis.[/i] It would be nice to get rid of some of the guilt of this potential purchase, at least. Anyway, ON TO THE DEALS FOR REALS

-Dynex wireless keyboard/mouse combo: Mouse used basically once; I've been using the keyboard for about a week but I totally promise to clean it out. It's got a lot of neat function buttons like volume control, copy/paste, calculator, etc. I'd ask for I think $25 shipped. Man, I have no idea how much shipping is on this thing, though.

-Playstation 2 Eyetoy: Play game and camera. British people love this thing. It's pretty fun. Maybe like $20 shipped? Maybe even less!

-Pretty blue lava lamp on silver base. I'll let somebody have this for the cost of shipping, whatever that turns out to be. If you are local, I'll let you have it for the cost of nothing. This just needs to be out of a Kohl's sack in the closet and in a happy home free of combustible cats.

Hmm. I kinda thought I had more stuff than this. I'm pretty sure none of you are Star Wars action figure collectors. Too bad. Okay, well, I've iWhored myself out enough here on the interjunk!

OKAY AWESOME LET'S E-COMMERCE
