Default another ebay rant

I know, just bitchin' but the people who bid on ebay are some real pieces of work.

I had some issues before and wouldn't use ebay for prob a year or better because of it.

sold some items recently as follows:

supercharger. just received payment after 2 weeks of It's paypals fault problems (?) another part I sold on ebay yesterday I already recieved the paypal on.

heads.
sold 'em 3 weeks ago. the guy tells me he doesn't have any money and he's trying to borrow some!

I relist. sold 'em again yesterday. guy send me a message, I don't think I want 'em after all, we can just agree on that, right!!

wtf.

thank god it's not local dealing or I'd want to kill someone. I've been real good for a long time and I really don't want to change that.

I had more bad deals with Ebay than good ones. Just about everything I bought was either received 6+ weeks after they had my money or just not what they said it was in the auction. I will never deal with that mess again.

I <3 eBay; most the time.

Fees are getting RIDICULOUS now though! 3% PayPal, about 2-4% total for eBay. Plus listing fees! Grrrrrrrr

sorry shawn, rockers go with the heads. I'll just sit on 'em and use 'em on another project. Just wanted to clean out the garage as I was moving and had taken my race car apart.


so I told the guy I didn't agree and if he didn't want something he shouldn't bid on it wasting my time and money and he should get a life!!
his answer, " No reason to get personal, I just don't think I want to do the deal now" what an assclown. I don't really care if they sell, I cared that I wasted my time and money on these clowns.

File a non payment with Ebay and leave negative feedback.
