Leaving it behind

I don't know what to think about recent events related to my auctions on that 4-letter auction site


In the past two months, I have heard everything in that dog ate my homework category of excuses -- I'm tired of it


One person bid 5 times on a hot auction I had then said oh, I mistakenly bid on it (after I filed an unpaid strike on them, after a few unanswered invoices and emails) -- another person took 3 weeks to pay me, then they were like 3 days after paying me, where is my item? -- another person told me, I paid you three weeks ago, it hasn't arrived yet, so I gave them back their money -- they later told me, oh my wife got it and put it in the mail pile two weeks ago, sorry -- this other person claimed that people were stealing mail from their neighborhood, and wanted me to refund them their money -- how bout NO


The auction site is fun and can be addictive -- but at the end of the day, the way I feel about it right now -- I just don't want to stress over stuff that costs less than 50 bucks


Today someone basically tried to extort me -- they go, oh I haven't left a feedback yet -- your item arrived okay -- I've been enjoying it -- there is a manufacturer's packing defect, what can I get from you for it


Ummm, a kick in the ass -- go bother the company, I didn't pack it, I sold it to you sealed -- what can I do, oh yeah I just happen to have that replacement disc lying around here -- irritating

You know what has always struck me as terribly odd


eBay DOES NOT make known its customer service phone number -- like it's some great national secret -- it pops up from time to time on the net, then is changed the next day


Much like the castle in KRULL


Well, it's all that stuff that makes me think that it is really TOO BIG now, and eBay doesn't really care to give more order to it -- so I shall walk away from it

it's been a while since i've used eBay since i've been on a buying spree from mainly Japan.

it's sad. eBay has gotten so big that people are now professional eBay scammers. it's actually become a career crime for some. *sigh* i've had just a few problems with eBay but again i havent bought or sold much in the last 6 months.
