Buy And Sell
 
Does anyone buy or sell on eBay or other auction sites? I want to buy some Rolling Stone's gear to add to my collection, but I'm not sure about the whole, getting value for money thing. I mean, there was someone selling a keyring for $6, that's such a rip-off!

Any funny items you've come across being sold?

sleepy jack 11-23-2005 11:57 PM

That xbox thing.
It was sold for like 2000 dollarz or somethin right?

Wasn't there a toasted cheese sandwich that had jesus' face burned into it or something lol??

Merkaba 11-23-2005 11:59 PM

My aunty uses Amazon I think. Maybe it's ebay....

She hasn't had any problems that I know of, and thats not bad since the goods have between New Zealand and America to get lost.

Yeah.I think(don't quote me) that it was the last one smoked in an NZ pub before the tobacco nazis got their way.:mad:

Merkaba 11-24-2005 12:16 AM

Dumb law that. People know that theres gonna be smokers when they apply for the job. If you don't want the smoke, don't apply for the job, work at Starbucks or something.

I very rarely venture out to the pub nowadays.It's pointless to go for a brew only to spend the majority of your night standing on the footpath like a social leper.

I think it's great that its non-smoking in pubs, I have the choice to not passive smoke and get cancer just because I want to go out and dance.

Merkaba 11-24-2005 12:28 AM

^ And then theres that side to things, which I agree with too.

I can see where smokers are coming from but I like being cancer free like Vanilla too. I am truly devided unless I look out for number 1...which is me. And in that case I'd rather see the smoke stay outside.

I think it's great how they are promoting smoke-freeness, it will help people quit and stop them smoking infront of children.

Even if there was a vote, it would be less than 25% of the country that would support smoking.

That's actually a little ignorant. If someone had a passion for bartending, and hated smoking, isn't that unfair that they would miss out on an opportunity to do something they love?

That goes both ways you know.I think it's a little ignorant that smokers are treated like scum.


what fascinates me is that if you're drug dependant or alcohol dependant, it's classified as an illness whereas if you're nicotine dependant it's nothing more than a filthy habit.

Fair enough, and there were some places that asked for no smoking anyway, with or without the law so that it was a healthy enviroment.

Scarlett O'Hara 11-24-2005 12:50 AM

I thought it was classified as being "addicted".

How are smokers treated like scum?

Well it's common knowledge that just under 25% of NZ smokes. I don't see why non-smokers would vote for smoking still in pubs.

The law is kinda an example, it's not the smokers fault yet they get penalised. Businesses could easily pay for extractor fans so smoke didn't waft, but got sucked straight up.

Yes.And the DHB classifies an addiction to a drug be it alcohol or drugs to be an illness that needs proper medical/psychiatric help where applicable, but smoking does not come into that.

Try walking through town or watching something like for example a concert and lighting up then you'll see the dirty looks you get from people.I had one woman watch me light a smoke yesterday and she looked at me as if I was going to kill her in cold blood.

That's where I'm lucky I guess, my boss doesn't give a rat's arse if I smoke at work.His opinion is instead of staff going outside to smoke everytime which equals lost productivity let them smoke in the wharehouse.
By the way he is also a non smoker.

Scarlett O'Hara 11-24-2005 01:26 AM

I think the tabbaco companies have a lot to answer for.

I think my parents have a lot to answer for.For not kicking my arse when they found out I was doing it.
If I could do it all over again I would never have started.

And I am giving up weed.

Scarlett O'Hara 11-24-2005 01:37 AM

Good boy, be a good example for your kids. The ones being brewing in your girls belly! ;)
