Yes... that's how I got it worked out. Seems strange but I need both Explorer and Chrome open. One for the link and the other allows it.

I tried out eBay for the first time today!
...and snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.
The seller specified bidding could only be done if you had a PayPal account, and he wanted payment in 24 hours. So I made one of those and bid.
However, to fully activate a PayPal account, you need a code that only appears on your statement. I happen to be traveling right now, and can't get that code until I get home, near the end of the month. Even if i could, it hasn't even been posted to my account, and may not for 2-3 days according to my CC Company.
None of which I knew when I submitted my bid, and it all ads up to me not being able to pay within 24 hours, as he specified.
I feel douchey about the whole thing. I won the auction, only to be unable to pay for it, even though I could if he didn't demand PayPal.
This is mitigated by the fact that eBay has a potential remedy: he can offer the guitar to the next highest bidder. Since I only edged out the others by @$1.77, he won't lose much.

Huh. I didn't know you could do that on Ebay. I was under the impression that they handled the transactions.

Mutters... damn smurfs damn their sat phones and and their mega fields from point f'ing loma to Kansas and Mexico...
At least the Oreimo OVAs are up... I must begrudgingly see the siscon route reach it's end. That said, although Kuroneko was a cool character, I always hoped Manami would win out in the end. My love of that character grew 10 fold during the "recent" background episode where she told Kirino that her obsession with Kyosuke was grossly inappropriate and down right creepy. That scene must have been the best Face-Heel turn in Romantic Comedy Anime history. So guess how I felt when I saw this happen:
If you guess, I cheered, you were correct. But alas... only a fool would have not expected the ending to happen as it did.
Oh well there is always Stella Woman's Academy High School Division Class C3... Aka Girl und Panzer but with airsoft guns. There is also WATAMOTE and Sunday without God and The Eccentric Family.

During GuP there was a lot of joking about how the next one should be battleships. Well, it's not exactly the same sort of show, but Arpeggio of Blue Steel is getting an anime adaptation:
