What does OBO mean? I see that a lot on selling sites...

Also, someone wanted to know what (T_T) meant? It is sad face, more, a bawling/sobbing/crying face. Another crying face goes like this (;_; ) The vertical lines on the letter 'T' is tears streaking down the face... See it? Japanese people uses typed faces little differently. :-) is a smile to most of us, but in Japan, it's like this (^_^) they type their faces not sideways... Do you see it?

I was wondering about this too. I thought that it maybe means: Or Best Offer?

I don't know if this one has been posted before (or used by anyone else but me), so here goes:

HHH = Hermes Hating Husband*

*Basically he just hates the price tags, though. To his credit he does have a vague understanding of why Hermes' products are so expensive after an extensive education by yours truly. Understanding, yes. Acceptance, no.
