Without the personality, but he does have a bigger variety of greasy sidekicks.

Too true. Mr. Mint only had Zubes, his Pancho Sanza, while Goldin has many dubious assistants.

The 1099s aren't the issue with eBay, the cost is. eBay has gotten ever grubbier, to the point where DIY selling there isn't worth it. Even when I had my store and my top-rated seller status, the combination of closing fees payment processing fees charged on the hammer AND the shipping AND the sales tax, and shipping costs, put me at nearly 15% of the hammer price OOP. Well, for 5% more I can send the same cards to REA for the Encore auction and avoid the time suckage of retailing dozens of items? Plus, no whining, no lost items, and no returns? That's a no-brainer for me.

I hate to be a nitpicker, but as a Lit major in college, I am obligated to point out that Don Quixote's sidekick was Sancho Panza.

Pancho Sanza?

Forget it, he's rolling.

Just be thankful you are not one of those persnickety picknitters...those are the type of folks that are bound and determined to go tilting at windmills.
