eBay

I just noticed that EBay fees since January 1st have been 21%, I use the most basic listings. They are hostile towards sellers...always on the side of the buyer, and really don't give a *&% as they think they are the only game in town. It isn't worth it; besides the crazy buyers, a bunch of theives at EBay and the headaches...for what, 79% of my goods and I get the hassle. And if that guy comes on that always tells you to take a deep breath, hold yours for as long as you can.

Kelda, to look at my Photobucket album all you have to do is click on that photo down below 😮
(I just learnt that by accident very recently)

Honda, you got rid of the smiley?
Anyway... Not all of those guitars are mine. A lot of them were... But I have since sold them.
Also alot of those photos I stole from somewhere and put them in Photobucket so that I could link them to a forum.

You cannot just link using 'copy image location' from evilBay any longer if you are using Firefox.
So I put them on PB, then onto whichever forum. Then the photos stay even after the listing is over and gone.

But about 60 of those guitar were mine... Some of them still are.

Awwww OMA... You let the cat out of the bag! But of course Kelda would have to know its a Right click on your pic..... then a click on properties..... then highlighting the URL.... then a Ctrl+C.... then a paste in your Browser... then a click on Enter..... I dunno, sounds too complicated for the young ladies here at the Pharties club.;-) :^O ]:)

I do feel badly for OP, John McElroy, as he was burned by a seller: http://forums.ebay.com/db2/topic/Part-Time-Ebay/About-Done-With/520176086#

I really hope he stops back & sees that while his bitterness toward eBay is well founded matbe we can help him prevent it from happening again. I think some of his negative posting was vented at us as he couldn't toward the buyer who burned him...

Don't make me break out the $5.00 words on ya. :^O:-p Actually, all you need do is click, like OMA said. I tried, it worked :).

Getting burned then having to pay fees on the transaction... double whammy. Ouch. I think ebay does require a certain amount of thick skin and fits into the "a good offense is the best defense" category.

I hope he stops back too...w/o the attitude! If JohnnyMac knew about the articles about ebay 2010, he was doing some homework...he could be a worthwhile contributor to the board.

I just knew there was underlying reason I couldn't stand you MH!

In all seriousness I watched the game last night & Sanchez was impressive. Who do they play next? Even if the Pats win today they are no match for the Chargers their predicted next game.
