Dear eBay Queen: Is There Such A Thing As An eBay Friend?

Dear eBay Queen:

I really need someone that I can talk to about my eBay success’ and problems.  Is there such a thing?  Where can I find one?  I sometimes just feel a little isolated doing what I do.

Dear RTT:

I have a few really good eBay friends.  I met most of them on Yahoo groups ( a billion years ago).  Yahoo groups have gone out with the times, but Facebook groups are kind of the same now.  There are so many Facebook groups you can join relating to eBay.  Here are a few that I love (in no particular order)

You can also try the eBay boards, or even a local meet up group.

I met one of my best friends at a local auction house.  She would bid against me on what seems like every item I would try to buy!  We’ve known each other about 18 years.  She is the one I call when I need help loading my car, or when I want to tell some crazy story about being hexed on eBay. 😉  If you can find a friend like Tammy I would recommend one.

The one draw back I can think to having an eBay friend.. is you want to make sure they won’t give out your eBay secrets or maybe your “eBay fishing hole”.  I hope you find your Tammy!
