Why would anyone want to buy one this way? Because they might get it a bit cheaper than buying it in a store? But then when you add postage and so on, isn't it going to be about what you'd pay if you just went and bought one at a store? It seems a bit labour-intensive and a convoluted way of doing things, but then, human nature is just a teensy bit screwy sometimes, innit? ===== Catherine Toronto ______________________________________________________________________ Post your free ad now! http://personals.yahoo.ca
