Broken Hallelujah

Confessions of an eBay opium addict.

"Like anyone trolling the Internet at 4 a.m., I had been looking for some kind of temporary fix. I found it on eBay under Crafts - Floral Supplies - Flowers - Foliage - Dried. Crafting. Sure. A query turned up all sizes and quantities of poppies. Some, called gigantheums, were as big as tennis balls. A special of '600 XXL-sized gigantheums' were selling for $399. Fortunately, for crafting projects requiring so many poppy plants, financing was available for $17 per month. For all of us hardcore flower-arrangers, of course." [more...] Wow, someone's a crafty little shopper. eBay really does have it all.
