Jogging and ebay

[burntcopper]

31 mins 40s today, plus 7 mins of jogging that was a combination of a wretched snail's pace stumbling up New Hill and the bit post-New Hill. With added snark from the window cleaner. Bastard.

Ebay... dear god. Getting rid of things like Ultimate Spiderman comics and Catwoman issues I really can't be arsed to read and the prices some are reaching are fecking ridiculous. They're going for the price I originally paid for them, which is definitely saying something. Suspect it's due to several of the bidders being newbies and first-timers, or at least the obsessives with more money than sense. Haven't had stuff go for this much since that time I sold those Birds of Prey comics that went for about four times their worth. Mind you, in that case I was later informed that one of the issues was like gold dust and had had a very limited production run. But still. It's comics, people! You can find the Ultimate Spiderman issues in graphic novel format - much more durable, cheaper and prettier, not to mention they take up less space and they're easier to read in one go... Oh well. If you want to throw away your money, I'm not stopping you. Far from it.

Oh, and ladymoonray? Turned out the post office was being highly finicky about that cheque I'd sent to you that never arrived - I'd written street rather than road or something, and they sent it back.

Oh phew, at least it hadn't gone missing completely. The thing is, I live in xxxx Street. xxxx Road runs perpendicular to it. We're always getting the wrong mail. I'm surprised they sent it back, but it was better than nicking the cheque.
