:oops: My biggest mistake was from Grays on line, several years ago a friend who is a keen wine drinker and self appointed connoisseur told me about the site and thought I'd bid on a few bottles for the Ratess and as you do, got a little carried away and bid on about $400 dollars of wines after placing the bids went out for dinner and on returning home thought I'd check how the bidding had fared, being new to the Grays on line site didn't realise about the little button at the top of the page that indicated successful bids so thought I'd try my luck again and rebid, next morning checked the site and discovered that I was now the proud owner of $886 of wine. Worst thing I'm not really a wine drinker more a beer connoisseur never did see any money from the Ratess but it kept her very happy for some time :lol:

I bought some linear bearings once only to discover that the rails where no longer in production and could not be purchased for love or money. Bastards selling them obviously knew this and so should I have. :evil:

No I haven't purchased it.... but this would have to be close to the most ridiculous aquaponics ebay item ever...

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Aquaponic-Aq ... 3f2213cbdd

Yep.. thats right... a hacked up IBC, tiny pump, and some blue metal... for only $750....

But wait.. for a mere $250 more... he'll.... deliver and setup with quick start training and DVD included....

:lol: :lol: :lol:... what a bushranger...

I'd want at least a free set of steak knives with that....

P.S.... And this is how knowledgable he is....

And.. for $10 (+$5 container deposit).... he'll even sell you a 20L container... of sea water.... :lol:

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Natural-Seaw ... 3f221b41a8

Which is probably better value than the IBC listing... :lol:
