More sick people out there.
Washington, Jan 20: If you yearn for lips like Jessica Simpson then just head over to eBay, for that’s where the singer/actress’ line of cosmetics is being auctioned.
The box of Simpson’s “Dessert Treat” line of cosmetics that has found its way to the online auction house has a total of 100 Creamsicle Lip Candy lipsticks.
And, the seller swears will make the wearers’ lips tingle and plump, reports TMZ.com.
Simpson launched the line of lipsticks in November 2005. They were an addition to her already popular Dessert Beauty line, sold at Sephora and online retailers, and the more affordable offshoot Dessert Treats, sold at drugstores.
The box of creamsicle lipsticks has so far gotten bids for a total of 47 dollars. They have been up for auction for five days so far.

'ImpeachBush.com' to fetch big bucks in eBay auction
This is crap, everybody is trying to make a living off the war.
A sale on eBay of a URL that will attract the strongest detractors of President George W. Bush could fetch a savvy investor a heavy return tomorrow. As of this afternoon, the going cost in an auction of 'ImpeachBush.com' is up to more than $25,000.
The auction of the internet address 'ImpeachBush.com' will take its last bid on January 20th. With 50 bids recorded, the highest is $25,100. The seller claims that the address gets heavy hits without ever having been used as a developed website.

eBay to the rescue
Looking for "it"? eBay’s advertising pitch is "Whatever it is, you can get it on eBay.”
Even snow. Snow balls, that is.
New York City is the Big Apple, but no snow has fallen on the Apple so far this winter.
I am not complaining, and I haven’t heard my fellow New Yorkers grumble either. Suburban dwellers apparently are feeling snow deprived, however.
Once again, eBay to the rescue, according to AP reports:

Google, eBay Go to War
It’s official: Google and eBay are at war over online payments. This week, Mountain View, California-based Google upped the ante by offering a link on its homepage to its online payment service, Google Checkout, which included a special offer for a $10 rebate on merchandise.
This is just one of many such promotions, said Benjamin Ling, product lead for Google Checkout, who said that Google is “very happy” with the progress it has gained in the marketplace.

Selling on eBay isn't all it's cracked up to be
Like most people, I am always looking for ways to make some extra money. As a stay-at-home mom, my options were severely limited. I could baby-sit in my home, but with two kids of my own under the age of 3 that would be somewhat of a headache. I could work at night when my husband came home from his job, but that didn't appeal to me either.
After talking with some people, I found my answer to my problem in eBay, the online marketplace where a person can buy or sell just about anything in deals with people from all over the world.
From the stories I heard, it seemed too good to be true. It seemed like anything people sold turned to gold, and as a self-proclaimed bargain hunter, I thought I could find some good deals in the stores and sell them for a profit on eBay. So with nothing more than a credit card and my two kids strapped in their double stroller, I began my summer scouring stores for discounted children's clothing.

Guardsmen accused of selling stolen gear on eBay
Two National Guardsmen who served in Iraq have been arrested, accused of illegally selling thousands of dollars of stolen military gear — from night-vision equipment to body armor — on eBay.
Lee N. Shobe, 28, of Toledo, and Christopher R. Henkel, 36, of Decatur, were released on their own recognizance Tuesday after appearing in U.S. District Court in Urbana. They were arrested Friday on charges of stealing government property, and their cases were turned over to a federal grand jury.
Henkel and Shobe belong to Headquarters Company of the 2nd Battalion, 130th Infantry, based in Champaign, Army National Guard Col. Alicia Tate-Nadeau said. Shobe worked as a unit supply specialist, according to the complaint.
