For some the addition is managable but for others it becomes like gambling or alcohol addiction. My sister uses the excuse that she is shopping so that she can resale the items on ebay to make more money. Her husband had to build a shed out back for her to store her items in… and ofcourse she posts items on ebay…but then uses the money to buy more.

And I’d guess that it affects more like 10 - 12 percent of the population. The shopping channels, such as QVC, are largely supported by shopping addicts . . . and the execs at QVC are well aware of this fact, and exploit it.
