I think I would like some questions, please.

Oh, and with [livejournal.com profile] kalmn's eBay suggestion -- if you tell me what brand and size and stuff to look for, I can set up an automatic search thingy on my account. For this sort of thing, a reasonably effective tactic is to set up an automatic search, go put in a decent but lowish bid on whatever reasonable shows up, and eventually the laws of probability distribution will end up in one's favor.

This is as opposed to the last thing I bought off automatic search, for which the effective strategy is to set up the search, and put in a high bid on whatever shows up and then up it at the last minute to way high, because it's the first one that's showed up in three years, and it's a model kit that they only made a couple of thousand of back in 1961, and distributed for free giveaway to Chevrolet dealerships, where most of them presumably got given to small children who dismembered them gleefully.

(Speaking of which, remember how I was telling you about the fact that I joined eBay after some of the best deals had already been had? This kit is what I was thinking of. Someone I know of bought one ... for $20.)
