    It's a conspiracy, I tell you!

    Shill games Shill games This was a long while ago, but I was looking at a daughterboard on ebay. The first time it was listed it closed with no bids. It was re-listed and I bid the opening bid which was the most that I was willing to pay. I was immediately outbid by two other bidders and it...

    Using the "Rare" word in sales threads

    Medium, Please Medium, Please Whenever I'm looking for anything on EvilWays, I always put -rare in the search field. That way I don't hurt myself by laughing too hard. My formula has fewer variables: RARE = robbery.

    Paypal gift option

    Paypal gift option I opened a paypal account years ago to buy on ebay and tied it to my credit card. I do not sell on ebay. I make a purchase, I click PAY and I pay the credit card bill when it comes; a simple transaction. Paypal has periodically demanded that I register my checking account...

    better ask before I sell stuff :)

    On my last purchase on Ebay the seller didn't even take 2 minutes. He took a 6 inch square board and tossed it into a 1 foot cube box, took a plastic grocery bag and made a balloon out of it. By the time it got to me it ran out of air and the board bounced around all the way across the...

    Spelling

    Spelling

    Wrong bid...

    I had something similar happen to me years ago when I first tried ebay. I wanted to bid $1 more and posted $2700 instead of $27.00 five minutes before the end. I went to look up how to retract the bid and the auction ended. I then got notice that I won for over $200. Seems someone else bid...

    ebay putting the screws on sellers ?

    ebay putting the screws to ... ebay putting the screws to ... What I have found annoying is at the top of the listing it says shipped from U.S. and you have to search to find that the item is really in China, or when 'free shipping' is included you find out where it is coming from after you...

    Hi

    I've been non-practicing and am returning to the religion. I've been opening boxes and hope to clean the dust off of four 2000s and one 3000 since I could never get rid of them like I did the dozer boxes.
