Pulse: Home Kit for the Decerning Millionaire

Mile High Automation, a company based in Denver, is auctioning on Ebay a Home Automation Package. This system will set up audio systems to 14 rooms of your estate(yes, you must have estate), 55 automated lights, 6 thermostats and 6 security camera with a touch screen viewer cause lets face it, to quote George Carlin "Everyone else's stuff is shit but your SHIT is STUFF!!!" This rediculously expensive auction is listed at the time of this writing at $33,999.00 with NO BIDS currently (NO WAY I'M SHOCKED... sarcasm sarcasm). If you're interested in tricking out your home and the near $40,000 price tag is what you spend on laundry then... well... I HATE YOU. But not enough to not be above begging you for cash.

Who buys this stuff... you know, besides puffy. :-j

Ebooks about Ebay

If you're at all like me you do one of two things when you are ready to start something. You either (a) spend time researching the subject till you form a plan that can get you what you eventually want or (b) jump right in and hope you don't drown right away. (b) isn't as bad as it sounds because eventually you have to take the first step if you plan something or not. But it is good to have a plan of action. This is true of many things but in particular I'm talking about EBAY and other auction sites.

In either buying or selling on EBAY it is always good to know the landscape. If you don't: buying - you might get outbit at the last second (sniped) or, selling - you may not attract a single buyer. Plus you don't want to pay more for whatever the main objective is.


If you're interested in getting some info beforehand check out these 6 top e-books on the auctions page of CBMall. You can also search for more ebooks with the CBMall search bar on the sidebar. If real books are more your speed then the best book out there is "The Official EBAY Bible" by Jim Griffith or Uncle Griff as hes known. WARNING: IT IS BIBLE SIZE, but if you use it as reference you can get alot out of it.

Of course there is plan (b)... In which case go to EBAY or the auction site of your choice you risk taker you...

Happy Auction sniping...
