LMAO - REALLY nice production on that tune! One of the best sounding MP3's I've heard from a sound-quality standpoint. And a pretty catchy tune too...
"Wanna buy... the kinda stuff you'd throw away
I'll buy... on Eeeeeee Bay!"
I'm humming it right now... lol
Here's the direct link to the song from the source code:

Ahh, no wonder it sounds so good! It's a Wierd Al ripoff of a Backstreet Boys tune. I couldn't resist doing a little research - I love the web! Here are the complete lyrics:
A used ... pink bathrobe
A rare ... mint snowglobe
A Smurf ... TV tray
I bought on eBay
My house ... is filled with this crap
Shows up in bubble wrap
Most every day
What I bought on eBay
Tell me why (I need another pet rock)
Tell me why (I got that Alf alarm clock)
Tell me why (I bid on Shatner's old toupee)
They had it on eBay
I'll buy ... your knick-knack
Just check ... my feedback
"A++!" they all say
They love me on eBay
Gonna buy (a slightly-damaged golf bag)
Gonna buy (some Beanie Babies, new with tag)
(From some guy) I've never met in Norway
Found him on eBay
I am the type who is liable to snipe you
With two seconds left to go, whoa
Got Paypal or Visa, what ever'll please
As long as I've got the dough
I'll buy ... your tchotchkes
Sell me ... your watch, please
I'll buy (I'll buy, I'll buy, I'll buy ...)
I'm highest bidder now
(Junk keeps arriving in the mail)
(From that worldwide garage sale) (Dukes Of Hazzard ashtray)
(Hey! A Dukes Of Hazzard ashtray)
Oh yeah ... (I bought it on eBay)
Wanna buy (a PacMan Fever lunchbox)
Wanna buy (a case of vintage tube socks)
Wanna buy (a Kleenex used by Dr. Dre, Dr. Dre)
(Found it on eBay)
Wanna buy (that Farrah Fawcett poster)
(Pez dispensers and a toaster)
(Don't know why ... the kind of stuff you'd throw away)
(I'll buy on eBay)
What I bought on eBay-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y

Weird Al is awesome ^_^
I wonder if having that tune on their auction helped boost sales any...

The Backdoor Boys were the real rip off!

Speaking of ripoffs, I ripped off your little app for telling the user's ISP, PC-type and browser, Spas. I like it. hehe
