Any others out there?

TryingSoHard · 03-15-2009, 02:24 PM

A few years ago I sure was, but not lately. Although I do have a bunch of stuff I could sell on there now...

I had to give it up!

Rusty Zipper · 03-15-2009, 06:27 PM

i earned my seat here!

hey DK, i almost sold my third edition Big Book on there! lol

seriously, its helped keep a roof over my head...

learned how to sell my antiques on there about a year after i sobered up...

i'm on there as much as here...

and the thrill seeker that i still can be...

i start my auctions at .99 cents, no reserve!

I don`t go there much because I like to buy stuff...mainly old books to read and especially AA stuff.I have tons of stuff I need to put on there and sell.

I buy a lot of stuff on eBay because it's quite a trip to go shopping, and often I can find what I want cheaper on eBay. I've had a few "learning" experiences, with buying as well as selling. I'm up to 466 positive feedbacks at 100%; 4.9, 4.9, 4.8, 4.7 DSR.

I have never used it and went and bought a watch last night because of this thread! What fun (not!) it was trying to outbid myself hehe. Anyways it'll be here on Friday apparently, i will take a pic of it when it gets here. That is my one buy on ebay this year, hoever it is $500 cheaper than a shop in the UK that is selling the same model so all good:-)

Hey doornob have you ever used the site that finds mispelled stuff?

doorknob · 03-16-2009, 05:04 PM

No... you mean mispelled listings? Didn't know there was such a place.

I know a site that will pull up all the negative and neutrals in a users feedback history...

**Done_With_It** · 03-16-2009, 05:07 PM

lol, what would be the point of that? am I missing something?
well, ha ha besides most of my brain...... I don't get it though..

doorknob · 03-16-2009, 05:17 PM

I'm confused too... mispelled listings or looking up a users bad feedback?

aasharon90 · 03-16-2009, 05:26 PM

Im a Ebay buyer and also Amazon. Love
shopping online. I usely use the 'buy now'
so i dont have to wait on bidding. However
i have bidded and out bid others many
times.

Fun topic. Thanks..!

Well then.........

Nevermind........

lol, just kidding.

I mean like if you wanted to buy a Dooney and Bourke handbag

you spell dooney and bourke handbag like that, right?

But some people spell it like this,

dooney and bourle, dooney and bourkee, dooney and bourk, dooney and bouke, dooney and burke, dooneyand bourke items on eBay.com

doorknob · 03-16-2009, 05:45 PM

I see... I was thinkin' along the lines of mispelled items that don't get bid on because they aren't found in searches and sell cheap.

doody and broke
