EBay and working for a retail shop has ruined shopping for me. I walk into a shop and realise that the price I am going to pay for an object is a lot higher than what the object coats to make. Includes profit of the manufacturer, transportation, packaging, advertisement, taxes, storage, profit for the reseller and of course each ones expenses. And I just can't put myself in the position to throw the money. And end up getting stuff from ebay, directly from China.
Admitedly projects that would take 1-2 days to finish end up taking months waiting for the right part to arrive. If the Chinese manage to speed up things, then they've completely won the game.
