what we think people are doing is this.



ebay charges a fee based on SALE price, exclusive on shipping. so people get around the ebay fee, by charging less for the item, and more for the shipping.

Problem is they expect you to post shipping up front, shipping across the state is cheaper than across the country, but it tells you to enter one price for the whole country.

Hey Phins,

I didn't mind paying the 27 for 2nd day air, i needed the phone, however when they shipped it ground 2 days later i expect a refund.



I ended up going to a new store here locally that sells new and used cell phones with no contract. Which only goes to further prove my theory of only buying from local vendors. I'm pretty much to the point where i don't buy online unless i absolutely have to. I've got a couple of vendors, for example for my perkins diesel parts that I mail order, but i call them up, tell them what i want they charge my card when they ship it.



Paypal should side with me, i have like over 2000 transactions and not one complaint. I am sure those ***** have several. The thing that annoys me is, i turn in a paypal dispute, they all of a sudden start emailing me telling me they will give me a refund if I cancel the dispute LOL

I think the only bigger scam going is the democratic party.

Democrats and republicans alike they are all a bunch of ******* crooks, they just have a different style of ******* you. It's like going to the carnival, some booths take your money getting you toss coins at plates and the next one does it by getting you to throw a baseball at nailed down milk jugs, the outcome is the same no matter what the name of the game. I guess every few years the voters decide its time to get the bruises off their knees and go for a achey ******* for a few months.



I'm so disgusted and all around let down by all of them I find it hard to be suprised by anything they do at this point.

Yeah, so back to ebay, today I shipped off my old drag radials to their new owner. This guy actually paid for them. The first time I put up the auction, some nuthead bid $81 plus shipping, then proceeded to not pay. Biggest problem (really only problem) I've had with ebay is stupid non-paying bidders.



I'm just glad to have the extra space in my garage.
