It always feels good to get some thing you wanted or won. Paying $6.51 wow! what a deal the price of a six pack. By the way is it hard to buy things off ebay? this is kinda new to me. any help would be nice. Thank you.

Hi:
If you have an experienced ebayer help you (I did), you gots to set up a paypal account (only way to go). The very first thing you do, is get a checking account specifically for your paypal, put a very small amount of money into it, I put 25.00 to open it. Then get the experienced ebay friend to help guide you through the registration process on ebay. MAKE ONE SCREW UP IN YOUR ADDRESS THO AND IT WILL TAKE YOU DAYS TO STRAIGHTEN IT OUT.
When you get all set up, you can buy and sell. I just signed up for ebay one month ago, sold one item and won two items so far.
You can try to go through the registration process yourself, but you need the bank account FIRST.
Hope this helps.

Paypal is still kinda scary. money orders is the best way ta go but not everybody takes them.

I like paypal, I however do not use a checking acct. I just have a credit card for purchases. Much easier to be compensated if you deal with a loser. Plus you can prove you paid for something if it's ever an issue. With a money order, you can only prove you paid for the money order itself. And if you find something you just have to have immediately, it's usually shipped that day.
Great buy on the lenses Fuggy! Now you can have a set with blue dots, and an original set!!

don't git me wrong, i like and do use Paypal but it's still scary.
you ever git one of them "Your Paypal account has been compromised" emails yet? i almost fell for the first one but noticed when i held the cursor over the link it wasn't the Paypal address, so i contacted them and found out it was bogus. i've had to report about ten of them so far.
