生命的扳手

星期五的夜晚
以前都是去洪侃家玩耍
今天 就跟ebay拼了
ebay的股價如左

最近開始在ebay上賣東西
因為一來要搬家...二來要籌措一些旅費...
最真實的原因是因為洪侃送我們一幅畫
我們很喜歡 於是我們開始在ebay尋寶
今天賣出一個包包
昨晚標價40英鎊 今天一早起來就變67英鎊
很高興 但是真到PayPal check卻被扣了手續費
算一算整個transaction cost 如下
ebay insertaion fee (1.5)+picture (0.17@2) 還好沒加reserve (1)
Deal charge 4.5% (3.24)
PayPal 3.4%+20p (2.68)
VAT=?
總共是7.76 看來ebay的股票可以買 太好賺了
是不是我們幾個年輕人也來搞一個 類似PayPal的公司
加倍安全 半價收費
應該也能賺三輩子 的Goodenough的房租

Online auction giant eBay Inc. is buying Internet payment provider PayPal Inc. in a $1.3 billion stock deal that would unite arguably the Web's most successful business with one of the few companies that has been giving it any trouble.

EBay executives said Monday they hope acquiring PayPal would make the trading site faster, easier and safer and give eBay a significant chunk of e-commerce action it is missing out on.

"It brings together two companies in a way that will benefit our users," eBay's chief executive, Meg Whitman, told financial analysts in a conference call before the stock market opened Monday.

EBay shares then fell $4.31, or 7.1 percent, to close at $56.24 on the Nasdaq Stock Market. PayPal stock jumped $1.61, or more than 8 percent, to $21.61.
