I dug around in the couch cushions. NO change. Times are tough, but 
I didn't
realize they were this tough.

I do have a coffee can full of pennies in the bedroom, but think of 
the
postage it would take to send that to Mark

Hi!

I have a question, which exposes my background, but nevertheless I am
going to ask it:

Is it against eBay policy to advertise something for sale and then
in the same advertisement show how this could be gained for free?

Though Mark's advertisement itself is quite remarkable...

Nah, I'm charging $6.00 for "Shipping, handling, postage, packaging, mental
anguish, etc." specifically to cover that :)
I considered adding more to the "shipping, handling..." list too: "unsightly
blemishes, waxy yellow buildup, dry skin, etc., etc."
