Little devil called eBay

While my brother was still living with my parents and me, he was the only one with an eBay and PayPal account. Now that he moved away, I finally got my own. Well... finally for me, but not for my mom's credit card!
Being a student, my parents don't want me to work but just study. So practically I'm spending their money because I have no other option to go out and make an earning by myself. I wanted to, but it's not easy to find a job in Croatia...
I'm always reasonable with spending money. In person. When on eBay, it seems like a completely different thing! You don't feel the money going away as you would feel it when buying something face-to-face. On this way, I have the feeling like I got everything for free with the same procedure as logging onto Facebook! eBay is a little devil... It's making all of us buy more and more due to it's cheap prices and free P&Ps. I've had my eBay account for a little bit less than a month, and so far I've ordered 6 iPhone4 cases, 1 iPhone4 dust cover (which is a cute little Hello Kitty bow! ✿), 2 oversized rings, 2 necklaces, 1 skirt... The list would have been even longer, but I don't get to spend much time on the internet in the last days. One good thing about college exams ;)
Since shipping to Croatia takes a bit longer than it would take for delivery to another country, the only thing I got so far is my cute little "maneki neko" necklace. Maneki neko is a beckoning cat, a Japanese lucky charm. I ordered it from a girl in Australia that makes them. The price was 4 AUD and the shipping around around 2.50 AUD. It was very well packaged, so no damage was done.

I can't wait for my other stuff to arrive! Other products reviews will be written :)
