Look 595 for cheap??? BEWARE!

Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

I was actually pretty impressed with ebay's security. Earlier in the summer someone stole a credit card number from me, then tried to set up an ebay account with it. They e-mailed me immediately to inform me that someone was trying to set up a new account with that credit card.

Turns out that someone was buying up a bunch of video games online, then selling them on ebay, but they used my stolen CC number to set up the ebay account.

eBay actually picked up on it before my bank did.
