Using the "eBay" was referencing their commercials: "You can find *IT* on eBay." ;)

I didn't get the ebay reference (been away for too long), but I did guess that it was a person taking something to a hoop/ring of fire, so it was easy enough.  For my next trick...:

Yup, "Zip" - "Pang".  Zipang it is!

Dictionary.com Unabridged (v 1.1)
pang      [pang]
–noun 1.   a sudden feeling of mental or emotional distress or longing: a pang of remorse; a pang of desire.
2.   a sudden, brief, sharp pain or physical sensation; spasm: hunger pangs.

[Origin: 1495–1505; orig. uncert.]

—Synonyms 1, 2. twinge, ache, throb, prick, stab.


Meaning 2 is what I was aiming at -- the sharp pain you get when doing up your zipper too fast.   :)

Very informative, thanks! (No really, I was curious too! What exactly does the Zip part mean in that game?)
