Hi. I'm curious to find out the basics about other people who have the same obsession (buying and selling) that I do. I am a 29 married mother of 3. Two girls aged 9 and 2 and my boy aged 7. My husband and I have been married for almost 3 years. We have been together since our teens. I have only been selling on eBay for a few months. I have bought a lot more than I have sold. This is just a hobby for me really. I live in Tasmania, Australia. I am a secretary but not working at the moment. I like to "chat" and scan through hundreds of auctions. I play OTP a lot. Don't know what that is? Online Trivial Pursuit. I don't win often as I am terrible at American Histry and sports. I love to do folk art painting and I am also a Girl Guide Leader to 30 wonderful girls aged between 7 and 11. My life is full, my family is healthy and I am happy.

I'm a 42 year old kid who could never stand to work for someone else, so I drifted from job to job for years. If a resume was impressive for sheer numbers of jobs, I'd be king. Finally settled down 4 years ago, and married and have a loving wife when we're not arguing and a beautiful 2 1/2 year old daughter, and two older step-daughters, 17 and 20. We started our small business about 3 1/2 years ago. I thought having my own business would finally mean I would be my own boss. Wrong. I still have a boss.

I'm a single mom of a 6 year old daughter, not married now, never have been and hope to be someday! I am not able to work currently so the computer is my connection to the "outside" world in a lot of ways! I love sports (watching, not doing) and movies...HUGE movie fanatic (as you could see by my buying habits!), a trait I've dutifully passed on to my daughter

Well this is a nice change of pace question!
I'm a 33 year old married female with no children . Been married 13 years and have been trying to get pregnant for 12 of those. I work part time for my Dad, part time for me, part time for hubby, hey I think I work more now then when I had a full time job.
Anyway started eBay in Nov of 97 and have loved most all of those three + years.
Great Thread.
BTW: Where can I find my profile signature to include in my posts? I don't use AW to launch auctions - is that where the info is stored?
