Mike, are you manic depressive or schitzophrenic? I am seriously
wondering. Trust me, if I had anything to say to you, I'll say it right under my own screen name. Nothing about you worries or scares me and I don't need to hide. Seriously, you are WAY delusional on this one.

Actually, it's only three people right now, but you've had a LOT of
problems in the past. I do recall PE2 and several others getting into it with you. It's not us three against you. What you don't understand is when you post, you MAKE people be nasty to you. You antagonize people, accuse them of stuff that's not even remotely true or possible and you name call, and you continue, time and again, to promote stuff where nobody will EVER listen. You have been far too tainted for a long time. Last year early on, I tried to turn it around. I tried to calmly point to areas you might consider changing and how you talk to people. I was EXTEMELY nice to you. I think it was like one or two posts you made and I even did the parent-child thing which is called "positive reinforcement" where I actually complimented you on a couple nice posts. But then you did it again... you started acting like you were the be all and end all of the subject, trying to be right, not arguing calmly and then it went to hell in a handbag. The Paul started a group and another group formed with Dennis and all was happy because nobody was posting here. You seemed to vanish. I thought maybe you had time after many months to think about things and maybe grow up. So I posted here a few times and have been back, and some posts are finally being made... but now, you are upsetting it all again, causing problems. I guess it's time for us all to leave again and leave you here alone. I notice not many post but when Mr. B, Gummby or I post, people do respond, which is what we need; so we tend to post more than others. It's trying to be proactive and keeping the hobby alive. You seem to be trying to kill it. If anyone wants to joint Dennis/Chips group or Pauls, please email and I'll send you the links. We welcome new people. We have some very basic rules 1) NO flaming/arguments. One warning is given then you are plonked (arguments take to personal email) 2) you post the addresses and don't just lurk 3) we have to know who you are and verify it so we don't end up with certain problem children. That's it. Other than that, it's a FANTASTIC bunch of people and to be honest, both have been around over a year (almost two) and we only had one tiny thing happen and that is it! That was settled within one day and all the people are polite, kind and do post addresses and help.

wrote: You mentioned search... eBay just instituted a new search that severely penalizes sellers who don't specify a S/H amount by putting their items at the bottom of search. Additionally, they will soon be implementing a policy that will put sellers with low FB and star ratings lower in search. These are pro-buyer policies. I didn't know that about the new search and S/H policy. I'm going to have to read up on that. The problem I have with that is that sometimes we have to put the S/H in the description because eBay does not offer all shipping options available. For instance, I send magazines by Bound Printed Matter because it's less expensive for the buyer (and most who buy magazines appreciate that) but eBay doesn't recognize it. So, my listing says "other, see description for details". Does that mean my listing will be at the bottom? Gee, I don't know that, but guess maybe the other person can answer that. Intersting question. I can say one thing about printed material/media mail. If they ask you at the post office what's in there and you say magazines or whatever and a sales reciept, did you know they might refuse to let you mail it media mail etc? Yep! I had to pay full price shipping on lots of DVD's etc before because I said I packed nothing else in there except the sales receipt and they said that I couldn't mail it that way! Amazing huh? So don't ever say that. LOL I do admit, there is one new feature I like. It's a total with shipping feature and on your "My Ebay" summary, it lists the shipping now too. It's a good "at a glance" thing to compare. You can also search by lowest price or highest including shipping. I like that. I do see a lot of people not putting shipping still. I had NO idea they were being penalized for that. Could you expound on the penalty? I appreciate you educating me and the group. They continually change, so it's hard to keep up with all of it. I get email updates etc like everyone else but really I could do a hundred Ebay emails a day easily with bidding, outbidding, watches, ending soon, new favorites dealers listed and all that. Plus their regular spam. Wow, I haven't even noticed that feature, either! I'd better spend some time catching up! So this new thing with the low feedback is a good idea. I won't look at anyone below 99% usually. However, there's a problem with that too. If someone only has a feedback of 10 and ONE feedback is unjust and bad, that rating is VERY low. So that can't be 100% good for those people or buyers disregarding them not thinking about that possibility. Seems everything Ebay does has some negativity attached to it. I understand it's hard. But you now saying they will do this is really the first CUSTOMER oriented thing you have mentioned I think. It's almost exclusively negative to the seller. When is this new feature coming? That's why I always read the feeback even if the rating is 99.9%. And how the seller responds to that negative feedback is a testimony of how they do business. This is true; I just was thinking of bidding on something yesterday and the guy had what I consider bad feedback 98.5 or something like that. I read all the negatives and neutrals. Turns out almost all of them were for "broken" or "misrepresenting items". What I was going to buy wouldn't fit in that category so I could theoretically still buy from him and feel not so worried. But I ended up not because a couple of his feedbacks said "hard to deal with". ~Renee'~ P.S. Back to why we're all here............what do you think of Bob Hope Show ticket stubs from 1944 with autographs on them? If the sig is legit, a great thing!!! Not sure of value (not my area) but he's one of the classics so nice thing to have and I am sure some would be interested in it (especially if you've got some proof or a story behind it or something). |

Firstly, don't flatter yourself. I have a life, a job, & a family, so no time to bother wasting making up sock puppets just to flame you. Secondly, as was established a very long time ago, my name is indeed Mr Black. So its not made up, and has never been Thirdly, scroll up the thread. You just said it was ONE person that called you bareforger, and only ONCE. I have just proven you be a liar (yet again), so rather than admit you are wrong, try and save some tiny shred of credibility, you turn around and say it must be Sue and I that posted all those post going back 7 years .........serously Mike, this one is insane even for you.

Actually it said you did have a complaint that went unanswered. So if
it's untrue, contact them and have it removed. |
