and thank you for being patient.  being a "newbie" as you call it can be kind
of frustrating.  and i apologize for being a schmuck.  anyways, thank you for
the advice, it will now be well taken.

"usenet?"  i'm sorry, i've never heard of it.  i go through america online to
get my newsgroups (except this one, of course).

once again thank you for the advice.  and i apologize yet again for my "newbie-
ness".  maybe i can get it right THIS time.  but anyway, i'm still kind of
unsure as to what to do.  i like the raise-bid-get-higher-sale-price aspect of
auctions, but like i said, i need to get money quickly.  but now i think i'm
digressing, maybe this thread should be in "general."  (T.I.C., of course)
topher

maybe i can do both auction and sell for the same sets?  lol.
