Oh Perry, Perry, Perry. Where to begin? Perhaps here, [!@#%^&^]:

 

"please note payment required asap via paypal with 3% extra of final auction price as i will not pay paypal fees im already paying for ebay fees.."

 

well, you have to, you insufficiently_thoughtful_person. It is against eBay policy to charge surcharges

 

"Sellers may not charge eBay buyers an additional fee for their use of ordinary forms of payment, including acceptance of checks, money orders, electronic transfers or credit cards. Such costs should be built into the price of the item-this policy reduces the potential for confusion among bidders about the true cost of an item. Further, some forms of payment surcharges, such as credit card surcharges, are forbidden under the laws of many states, including California."

 

or, perhaps, here, [!@#%^&^] face:

 

"YOU CAN ALSO EMAIL ME IF YOPU WANT TO OFFER ME A DECENT PRICE AND WE CAN NEGOTIATE PLS NO RIDICULOUS OFFERS AS WE ALL KNOW HOW HARD IT IS TO GET COMICS AT THIS GRADES..thank u for your time"

 

Hmmmm. This sounds like a textbook example of fee avoidance, which is also verboten!

 

Users may not avoid eBay fees

Users may not use systems or techniques to circumvent eBay fees.

 

Examples:

Offer outside of eBay - offering the opportunity to purchase the item or other merchandise outside of eBay through the eBay site.

 

Who wants to be the person who reports this [!@#%^&^]? No wonder people get annoyed about eBay.

 

Kudos to you FD - sellers like this make me VOMIT! (there is no emoticon for spewing chunks)

Books were relisted separately. $20 for shipping, 24 hour auctions. I guess the $20 is the way to get around the Paypal fee.

[Foolkiller]

they'd probably come packed like a two year old as well.

The last 2 year old I got off of eBay was packed terribly. Just a bubble mailer -- not bagged and boarded like the seller advertiesd. AND he charged me $25 but he sent it Media Mail for $1.69. For $25 I was expecting that the kid at least be bound with duct tape so he couldn't wiggle around in there and draw unwanted attention.

 

See, that's what you get when child slavery goes to eBay. The crash can't be far behind.

I was watching there books and he closed another one with bids.

What the hell is a git?

[rob_react]

I'll fill in for one of our UK posters posters since it's late over there:

 

n : a person who is deemed to be despicable or contemptible; "only a rotter would do that"; "kill the rat"; "throw the bum out"; "you cowardly little pukes!"; "the British call a contemptible person a `git'"

[ArAich]

instead of calling you paranoidperry may we just shorten it and call you pp...

[Bronty]

hi perry,

 

I think you just rubbed people the wrong way by disingenously implying it wasn't your auction in the title of the thread (although obviously you admitted to it shortly thereafter). I think people would have responded much better if you had just been straight up and told them it was your auction right away... my .02

WTF? Flying Donut isn't Ron Jeremy???

[Bronty]

That's cool.. and I don't blame you for giving it back to people... they jumped on you pretty good, all things considered. Usually there's at least an attempt at being civil key word - attempt

 

....after all, the very first response to this thread was "go fist yourself"... that's not right, and it would make anyone defensive. I think you handled it pretty well all things considered. I would have told Khaos to go [!@#%^&^] himself so many times over that my keyboard buttons would have worn out. Just because Khaos is a board regular doesn't mean that post was excusable in the slightest.

Unfortunately MK gets off on [!@#%^&^] people off.

I agree with your comments Bronty, and although pp's auctions are not what we want to see, certain board members could have handled the shakedown better.
