英文原文:

Nate:Guess what, Gilly? I won both bids.
Gilly:Good for you. Did you use PayPal?
Nate:Yeah. It was so easy and super-fast, once I figured it out.
Gilly:That's the beauty of it, and the danger.
Nate:I should get the items within a week. But in the meantime I'm bidding on a digital video camera.
Gilly:How much?
Nate:Thirty U.S. dollars...and it's only been used for six months.
Gilly:Hmmm, sounds like risky business. Good luck.
