The eBay Addiction
Ever since eBay exploded into a cultural phenomenon in the past decade, many frequent users have wished they knew how to quit the online auction house.
Truth be told, eBay addicts often don’t want to give up their habits of trolling the trading Web site for that great deal or obscure collectible they can’t find anywhere else.
“There are a lot of people who are addicted to eBay,” said Jim “Griff” Griffith, who works at eBay as the “dean of education” and authored “The Official eBay Bible.”
The typically eBay-obsessed person, he said, “tends to be someone who a) loves to shop and b) loves to hunt, loves the treasure-hunt aspect to shopping.”

I am an addict. What hooked me is AuctionStud (www.auctionstud.com). It’s much better then sniping. It immediately sends me an email when something new that I’m looking for is listed on eBay. If it has a good BIN, I pounce on it. I’ve gotten so many great deals, however, now I have all this stuff that I really don’t need!
