Ah but my paypal expenditure is ONLY on ebay or for other card/memorabilia purchases, and generally funded by my credit card. I really really really would not want to know how much I have put on my credit card over that year... glad I have a high limit and get bonus points from it...

How'd you get it to work? Im still in strugle town
Ok, from scratch:
Log in to Paypal.
Click 'view all of my transactions'.
It must be on 'All activity' and click on the calendar which dates you want to range.
Click on 'Download CSV' on the right.
Select from the dropdown box 'Comma delimited - Completed payments'.
Let it do its thing for however many minutes....
Open with Excel.
Then (the fun part), manually go through and delete all of the positive amounts, leaving only the negatives which are what you spent.
Then, click somewhere and type =sum and then click on the first amount in the amount column and then click the last amount in the amount column, then type a closed bracket and it should give you the horrible total...

If you don't have Excel, you should download Openoffice from openoffice.org. It is freeware Office suite that was made to challenge Microsoft office as an Office Suite. Just as good but free. You can open all the different Office documents with it.
I dare not announce to everyone how much I spent. A bit embarrassed.....I feel a bit foolish spending so much on cards! And Paypal is not all.....also have my credit card which I have charged all my Exquisite cases on.
Let me just say I spent between $4-5k in 2 months on Paypal........add a case of 09/10 Exquisite and a few cases of 08/09 Exquisite (don't remember how many now) and you'll get the idea.

Let me just say I am happy that the AUD did not stay in the US$0.60's for very long in 2008 when the GFC hit.

Then add postage! I told you it'd be a big amount, i just didn't realise it'd be that big
The worst thing is the majority of that was on Augustin's

And the sad part is that you have probably only gotten 1/6 return on the cards from those boxes, or maybe worse..?
With ebay thesedays, boxes are the worst way to try to get cards that you want, you can only open them for the fun/thrill and write off the money spent!!

Basketball cards and basketball boxes only.
Abit surprising but figures since I don't have much savings while paying off a mortgage. Time to cut down on cards I think
