Other business has allowed/forced AC to shut down the store. Which isn't a bad thing. First off, summer is a notoriously slow time for eBay sellers. Swimming, road trips and beating the heat... http://www.urbanhonking.com/powerseller/archives/2006/08/summer_vacation.html http://www.urbanhonking.com/powerseller/archives/2006/08/summer_vacation.html Thu, 03 Aug 2006 11:20:59 -0800 AC is headed to blog detention.

It's been a long time since AC's flapped his digital jaw. Apologies. It's just that my eBay store has been humming like a well oiled machine so smoothly that the hum has become nearly silent.
