I have never done it with ebay, but have certainly missed a few lunches while visiting CCF.

wishing well pond at the mall after spotting silver quarters.

You attend a show for another hobby and one of the main highlights is finding a CCF family member traveled there just so you both could meet and have a great time
(Buddy and Kevin recently surprised me at an insulator show - just so we all could meet!)
