T-BONE

Don't knock it until you've tried it ya punk!

Everybody at one time was MJ's favorite band. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I heard she was a big Menudo and NKOTB freak back in the day

And now Kelly Hanson from Hurricane is their new lead singer

Would this "Personal Visit" be to deliver the cd's in person or to deliver something else?

I've had newbies hit the buy it now and then e-mail me saying it was an accident and Sorry. I told him that either he paid for the guitar or eBay action would be taken and he would get negative feedback. I never heard back from him so he got a negative. I relisted the guitar only to have another shithead tell me i was "Pissy" because I said any bidders with less than 5 feedbacks will have their bids cancelled unless they e-mail me first. He bid anyway so i cancelled him. Little prick sent all sorts of nasty e-mails after that.

Make him Pay for the cd at the price he won it. Give him about a week to get you the money even if it does mean a Money order or Cashiers Check. Hold the cd until it clears. If he still doesn't want to do it, notify eBay of the non paying bidder and get your listing fee back. They'll deal with him. Count about 89 days after the auction and then leave him negative feedback. I think the auctions only are active for 90 days. This is a situation where I think the seller should be able to leave the necessary feedback, but the buyer, not filling his obligations, should not be able to leave any feedback at all

We have a cause? Alright....when did this happen!?!?!?

All he has to do is read the red print if that's the case MJ. It's right in front of him. Then he'd know he isn't BANEED!

Say What?

www_shreddvd_com is another seller that used to make DVD-R's of real dvds and sell them. I notice that he hasn't been too active lately www_shreddvd_com

I see he won KRAZIE ACE Life CD RARE INDIE big hair hard rock 1995 fro Koogles. Tony, Did he manage to pay you for that cd?

How the hell do you look into what another person is bidding on?

So, in my Lambo analogy, you're more of the seller than the buyer.

I actually didn't even look as to where this cd was made or where it was coming from when I used the Buy It Now. I had bought the other Evidence One CD and decided to grab their others as well since I'm a huge Frontline fan. When he e-mailed me and told me that it would be about 2 weeks as it was coming from Russia, that's when I got a little edgy. His auction said nothing about being a Russian boot/reissue/copy/pressing. All the auction said was: Pay in USA Ship from Europe To me, Europe means "EUROPE", Russia means RUSSIA. Leaving auctions on the vague side doesn't make the seller honest. It makes them shady. I think the biggest problem people have had with some auctions, and even with some of your auctions Sam, is the fact that it never gets FULL DISCLOSURE. Not telling the entire truth doesn't mean the seller is necessarily being honest. They're just hoping to not get questioned. Same goes for your Lambo analogy. Maybe yours is real, maybe not....but if you indeed bought what you thought was a real one for $150,000 and got it home to find it was a Fiero kit car, I'd think you'd be a little pissed. The seller didn't offer the information, but you also didn't ask. Of course I'd say you were dumb for not asking, but I'd be more inclined to say the seller was a crook because he knew it wasn't real and he was hoping for an idiot to buy it that would take it for granted that it was indeed real. No...that paragraph wasn't intended to start anything with you by any means, it was just meant as a comparison. Someone else also brought it up around here that when someone is selling a cd, they use the really expensive and collectable bands cd's as a cross reference and when in fact, they sound absolutely nothing alike. I also find that very very shady. I've been bitten by that a few times and I know of others that have as well. I know that a few comparisons out there may just be based on opinion, but when there's an extreme stretch like some of the ones I've seen, I know for a fact that the seller is going for the moron buyers. Anywhooo...........I guess I'll just have to be happy that they at least recorded this cd in English

Hellfueled - Volume 1 Animal 900lb Steam Fozzy - Fozzy Evidence One - Criticize The Truth

Is that one of your loopholes you so fondly speak of?

Go Figure...I finally got the cd this morning and it's still SHRINKWRAPPED and on the back it says "Not Legal For Sale Outside Of Russia"

Are we talking current or in their day? My list would include Lita Ford Doro Pesch Lorraine Lewis Vixen girls Phantom Blue girls Fiona Lee Aaron Joanna Dean

That's why I kinda like the Buy It Now/Pay Instantly only option through PayPal. You're basically ensured payment. You limit potential buyers, but also potential headaches as well

Well...you should add the stipulation in your auction that they must contact you within a certain amount of days and/or make payment within a certain amount of days or item will be relisted and they will be reported to ebay with no questions asked. I also add in mine, that if they use the Buy It Now feature, they must e-mail me immediately with the form of payment and their address. I figure if they're already sitting at the computer to hit the button, they can also sit there and e-mail me as well. Some sellers are even going with the Must Pay Imediately option that ebay offers through PayPal. Maybe look into that. At least you'd be assured payment. The sad thing is that people don't even read auctions anymore. I've even gone as far as to list my terms FIRST (sometimes in big red lettering) before the item description and I still get the stupid ass questions about payment options and where I ship to. I don't even bother responding to them people anymore. I also make it clear that anyone with less than 5 total positive feedbacks must e-mail me with their intention to fulfill the terms before bidding or I'll cancel their bids and I still have them bidding. I canceled one guy's bid one time and he e-mailed me after and asked why. I told him that he didn't even read the auction rules and his response was that He did see that part, but I can't do that and he was going to report me. Well....nothing ever happened Anyway...I know that eBay has become a haven for morons and deadbeats as of late, but all in all, most people are pretty good.

One day a little boy went to the zoo with his parents. He looked over at the elephant and asked his Mom, "What is that thing hanging from the elephant?" His Mom replied, "That is his tail!" The little boy asked."No, that other thing"? His Mom relied."That is its trunk!" The little boy said, "No that other thing in the middle?" The Mom responded with, "Oh, that thing! That's nothing!" With that, he ran over to his Dad and asked, "What is that thing hangin down in the middle of the elephant?" The Dad responded, "Well, that is its penis." The little boy said, "Mommy just said that it was nothing." The Dad just responded with giggles, "Well what can I say, She's spoiled!"

TWO priests died at the same time and met Saint Peter at the Pearly Gates. St. Peter said, "I'd like to get you guys in now, but our computer is down. You'll have to go back to Earth for about a week, but you can't go back as priests. What'll it be?" The first priest says, "I've always wanted to be an eagle, soaring above the Rocky mountains." "So be it," says St. Peter, and off flies the first priest. The second priest mulls this over for a moment and asks, "Will any of this week 'count', St. Peter?" "No, I told you the computer's down. There's no way we can keep track of what you're doing." "In that case," says the second priest, "I've always wanted to be a stud." "So be it" says St. Peter, and the second priest disappears. A week goes by, the computer is fixed, and the Lord tells St. Peter to recall the two priests. "Will you have any trouble locating them?" He asks. "The first one should be easy," says St. Peter. "He's somewhere over the Rockies, flying with the eagles. But the second one could prove to be more difficult." "Why?" asketh the Lord. "He's on a snow tire, somewhere in Maine."

Two women, who had been friends for years, decide to go for a Girls Night Out, and were decidedly over-enthusiastic on the cocktails. Incredibly drunk and walking home, they needed to use the bathroom. They were very near a graveyard and one of them suggested they do their business behind a head stone or something. The first woman had nothing to dry herself with she thought she'd take off her panties, use them, then throw them away. Her friend, however, was wearing a rather expensive underwear set and didn't want to ruin hers, but was lucky to salvage a large ribbon from a wreath that was on one of the graves. So she dried herself with the ribbon. The next day the first woman's husband phoned the other husband and said, "This girl's night out thing has got to stop right now. My wife came home last night without her panties." That's nothing," said the other husband, "Mine came home with a card stuck to her ass that said, " FROM ALL OF US AT THE FIRE STATION, WE'LL NEVER FORGET YOU"

A stock broker, on his way home from work in New York City, came to a dead halt in traffic and thought to himself, "Wow, this seems much worse than usual. He notices a police officer walking between the lines of stopped cars, so he rolls down his window and asks, "Officer, what's the hold up? The officer replies, "Hillary Clinton is depressed, so she stopped her motorcade and is threatening to douse herself in gasoline and set herself on fire. She says her husband has spent all her money and the Democrats told her to forget about running for President in 2008. So we're taking up a collection for her. The stock broker asks, "How much have you got so far?" The officer replies "About 4 1/2 gallons, but a lot of folks are still siphoning."
