    Same. Been using my ebay account since early 1999, literally a quarter of a century. I don’t remember if it was the very first, but I know one of my early purchases was a parallel port to ethernet adapter, so I could take my already aging 486SLC/33 laptop to campus and get it on the internet using the Arachne browser. The SLC was basically a 386 on steroids, and it couldn’t handle both Windows and Interwebs. I paid for the first few items by mailing off a money order.
