on 10/15/2008 I have been on ebay since 1998 when it was small. I have had a few account but I am now 12,000 feedback under vancott. It is interesting to see how it evolved. originally no credit card was needed and Paypal did not exist. You had to find a site to host your photos. Most auctions did not have a photo at first. It was like pagers of the 90s vs modern cell phones. I am glad to have found ehow this month. I will enjoy writing. Thanks
