I never asked, WHAT ebay was.You're joking right?
I said, WHERE.
Given the fact that I am in mainland China (shown next to my nickname) this isn't exactly a joke.
Ebay is a no go - it's no problem ordering there but shipment will cost stupid money and why bother if 90% of all sold on ebay is made somewhere a couple of blocks away.
So I shop at taobao.com, a (should be the) internet trade portal of China.
