I love eBay! But, my Dad doesn't get it..
This post is about my dad again.
It's kind of hard to explain it to him about eBay. I went to the post office today to send an LCD monitor to a buyer in California. He asked me, "How much is the shipping?" I said $20. He was surprised, expensive he said. I know, USPS charged too much for that with UPS ground it will be much cheaper almost half the price. But, this guy only gave me a PO BOX address and UPS don't do PO Boxes. Well, I tried explaining it to my dad about the difference of UPS and USPS. He seemed to understand it.
But, after a short silence he started to speak again, "How come this guy in California is buying stuff from you here in Chicago? Don't they have it over there? They must not have a complete selection there. I know, I have been to the stores in California and I think here in Chicago we have more selections."
And I just took a deep deep breath... and inhaled.
I said, "Yes. I do think the same way."
Well, I guess he likes to make a conversation with me 'coz I'm a 'good listener' and a "yes-siree-bob-kid"
