Everyone Loves a Winner.. Love me! :)
I like a good deal, And in this day and age who doesnt right? So in my search around the web I found a site called bidnwin.me (get it? Bid N Win me?) catchy name if anything.
So this site is basically what is known as penny auction site. If you dont know what a penny auction site is heres how it works. Basically you and everyone else on the site bids on an item on the site. The auctions start at 10 cents and each bid that is placed raises the cost of the camera 1 cent, and increased the end of the auction time by 15 seconds,.
Looking over the site I decided to try my hand in the game. I threw down a couple hundred bux for a big bag ‘o credits
I eagerly waited for a nice D90 Nikon SLR camera to get close to ending, I knew from previous experience that these typically end around 240.00 from other auctions I had seen so I set the Auto bidder to auto bid from 120 to 156 and went to bed for the night.
When I awoke the next day I seen I had won the bidnwin auction. After waiting a couple of weeks for the delivery I now have a 1300 camera for less than 250.00 in bidding credits and final auction value.
Everyone loves a winner.. Love me! 
Till later.

Swine Flu. Pandemic?
All over the news today is talk about the swine flu. With confimed cases growing by the hour I might sugjest that everyone go down and get some little medical masks to protect yourselves especially in southern california Texas and teh new englnd area. as right now those are the places are the most affected at this time.
Basically a little common sense on everyone will help keep everyone from getting this appearanlty deadly desease which has killed over 150 individuals in Mexico. Non essential travel to Mexico should be avoided at all cost. If you feel sick stay home from work and avoid public areas.
Hopefully this thing will pass without too much problem
Take care

Cheap Ipod Clones A Pirates Den.
So it seems that a lot of people have seen the ipod clones and there seems to be a ton of them. A person cant hardly shake a stick at ebay nowadays without seeing them. So I decided to see where and how much these little buggers were going for. Come to find out a little infamous website called dhgate seems to be a primary culprit of not only pirate ipods but software, shoes and a whole mess of other items whos lead content in the paint is unknown.
Searching the website is chock full of amazing replicas of the originals for instance Those fore mentioned Ipod nano’s typically sell for about 14 bux and I seen one person selling Photoshop CS4 for a little less than 25.00US per copy. Every detail seemed perfect even the packaging.
I did about a week of checking back and fourth between and photographs I seen on ebay and could see that there were many discount software on sale there which came from dhgate and were being sold for wild profits. And it doesnt just stop with Ipods and Software but shoes, handbags children s toys the list went on and on.
So what can be done about it? not much it seems since these companies operate outside of the states it almost seems as though there is a copyright free zone originating in china. So when looking on ebay, look real close and make sure you have the real item.
Till later-
