    Yeah, I thought low as well. Your subject matter is better, and we've all seen ebay flukes, both very high and very low.

    Depends on search engines.

    On PopScreen, if you click on the picture instead of the link that says "find this item at eBay", it will usually take you to the archived page. I don't know why it works that way, but it's good to know.

    Also, you can right click on the pic, choose "copy link location" from the drop-down menu, then paste the link onto NotePad and you can see the eBay item number at the end of the URL. Sometimes, if you know the item number you can find it through a back door on a non-USA eBay site. Don't ask my why that works either! :confused::joyful:

    Tried going to ebay through PopScreen but it just took me to a general search using key words. Sometimes when this happens, if you go to completed auctions you can find the item. Not in this case. Finding the item number your way is a great tip. I know that the non-US ebay sites do sometimes have items much longer. Thanks!

    Yesterday I found a very timeless black midi-length wool coat in mint condition for 3$. That's my kind of black friday.

    Hobby Lobby has many similar things.
    I don't go in there as much as I did before because I can feel my wallet trying to get out of my pocket when I get nearby. ;)

    In Canada, the word confederation has an additional, unrelated meaning.[12] "Confederation" refers to the process of (or the event of) establishing or joining the Canadian federal state.[12]

    In modern terminology, Canada is a federation and not a confederation.[13] However, at the time the Constitution Act, 1867, confederation was the normal British and Canadian term for a single sovereign nation-state of federating provinces. Canadian Confederation generally refers to the Constitution Act, 1867 which formed the Dominion of Canada from three of the colonies of British North America, and to the subsequent incorporation of other colonies and territories. Therefore, on July 1, 1867, Canada became a self-governing dominion of the British Empire with a federal structure under the leadership of Sir John A. Macdonald.
