BNWT

Say what?! ... BNWT ... my latest fave letters. What am I talking about here? Well, this is all about my new addiction ... browsing eBay! It's been 3 days since I started being an eBuyer and loving it! The first time I searched for bags in this site and loved what I saw I immediately texted the seller and bought the items. 2 bags were bought from 1 seller. Had met up with the seller last Friday who apparently is a high school student in a posh school in Ortigas. Talking about privileged kids!

I'm not an impulsive buyer but the purchase was reasonable and the goods were necessities. I make sure whenever I buy an item the price is all worth it and this is true with my latest purchase online.

This kind of trade is new and somewhat scary to me considering internet fraud is proliferating nowadays. Reason why I'd rather met up with the seller is because I want to make sure that i'll get the items on the same day I gave my money to the seller. I'm not comfortable paying thru wire transfer or other modes of payment other than COD. Times are hard and I want to spend every penny I have fruitfully.

So what's BNWT anyways? it's acronym for Brand New With Tags. I was asking Miko what these letters meant when I first saw this online and he didn't know. When I found out the meaning of these letters, he's surprised and kept on kidding me how addictive I am now with eBay. Talking about being a fast learner here!

Hmmm...wait a minute! He's the one who introduced me to this kind of trade. Oh well! This adds up to the list of things we both love to do.

eBay offers a new meaning of shopping for me. This enables me to window shop without making my feet ache. It connects strangers and builds a new form of relationship. The process of bidding for an item is really fun and exciting. And lastly, buying something at a reasonable price from somebody who sells his/her old stuff not just adds value to the item but what makes it more unique is that it has history behind it.And if you're lucky enough, you may not just end up having the best seller in town but a new friend as well.

Just a reminder ... remember to look for BNWT and you'll never go wrong!

Happy bidding and enjoy shopping!
