i'm kinda loving ebay but hating it at the same time .i'm currently trying to buy a tablet pen mouse so i can draw on my computer .but i always get out bid .i don't think i should have to pay more then 40 dollars for it .plus the 10 dollars for the shipping .i could get a new better model at the store for 70 bucks though it doesn't come with any editing or drawing software as the one on ebay does .but still i don't believe i should have to pay more then 40 for it .the seller seems to have an endless supply posting a new one every time one sells .the page says they are factory sealed as well .i know i'm being a tight ass being so frugal with my money but i hate parting with it .though you might not really know it as i have bought other things on ebay that i don't need .i guess i don't need the drawing tablet either but i have more use for it then i do a loose emerald that i bought .the emerald action was about to end and no one had bid on it so i bid the minimum $9.99 bid and won it .it is a lab created stone but that just means its less flawed then a natural one .i hope i've not been ripped off paying 10 bucks for a piece of green glass .and i also hope that when i finally get the emerald it will appraise for more then the $10 i paid .one good thing about it is that shipping was free .but i received an e-mail from the person telling me that the bangkok airport was shut for 10 days and it will be delayed getting here .i did look online and found that protesters did do something to ruin it for me causing all flights in and out of the airport to be delayed .stupid protesters .but seriously i want this tablet and i hope no arse out bids me this next time
