He still needs money; but doing research into his current purchases at ebay (since June 2014 and including shipping if indicated)
Now, these are only the ones Chris has left feedback on right now (in the past month). It's fun to note that he always leaves the feedback "I got it, thank you"
EXCEPT, Chris has left a single bad review this month. Apparently, he purchased a "LEGO The Simpsons House (71006) Factory Sealed!" for $300 and he wasn't pleased with the delivery. According to Chris it "Did Not Include All Simpsons Characters." According to further research, "This set includes 6 minifigures: Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, Maggie and Ned Flanders." That's all it was suppose to include and if it was factory sealed it's unlikely it was tampered with via seller.
So, the GRAND TOTAL for June and July so far is: $1042 + whatever we can't see via ebay.
Oh yeah, Barb needs money for new teeth.

Holy crap, he paid 6 dollars for that clown head? It's worse than I thought. That shit costs literally cents on Bricklink. eBay part sellers are notorious for ripping people off with overinflated prices for individual parts, but Chris flies towards them like a moth towards light.
The "silly cute" clown? FUCK. I wanted some ween to buy that and send him a video of them smashing it with a hammer. FOILED.
"Send me 20 bucks, I'm low on gas"

Over $1,000 dollars in Legos in just a couple months? God, I wonder how Chris is going to survive when he doesn't have a place to crawl back to. If him and Barb were to get kicked out on the streets, he wouldn't be able to take all of those Legos with him, and I doubt he could sell them for much money, especially if he needed to sell them quick. And bear in mind this is only the stuff that we know about. No clue how much he's spending at Best Buy, Toys R Us, Get-Tar, etc.

Holy crap...$25 on two Marges...those figures go for as little as $2.00...so he's obviously migrating towards more expensive because he equates expensive with quality.

Remember that Chris is "not good at math when it comes to managing money", and that he tends to show excessive brand loyalty. Or maybe he just doesn't like to shop around if it requires more than a minimum of effort; brand loyalty can be used as an excuse to do that. So if an eBay seller tells him that a $2 Marge figure is $25, he'll buy it for $25 off of eBay. At best, he'll check around and buy the figurine for $20 from a different seller, but only if that seller is also on eBay.
Also, Chris doesn't understand that saying "new versions of the product will be available soon" can cause people to delay their purchases until the new version of the product is available. Some marketing major.
