Hearing that the Sakura Electric Eraser was a fine choice for my drawings, I scouted out the net for where to get one. None that I could see were available in Australia, so I set my sights on Amazon and found what I was after - probably a bit too expensive for my liking, especially since I was just starting out on my drawing venture.
Wanting to find out the total amount for the eraser plus postage, I needed to sign up for an Amazon account first. A necessary part of signing up was to add in my purchasing details. (You can see where this is going, can't you?)
I finally got a dollar figure on the eraser shipped to Australia, and nearly fell off my chair, as they were asking $100 - just for an eraser! I quickly scadoodled out of there and thought nothing else of it.
Until, that is, the next day I get an email from Amazon - "Your order has been despatched".
Argh!!
It's a good thing that I love my electric eraser as much as I do. I use it all the time in my drawings.
Is it worth $100 though??
Sadly, I think not!
