They can't f**k things up any worse than Ebay (which i still use, although I am
barely a blip on the seller's radar screen.) They have complicated and, driven
by greed and stupidity, made a frustrating Orwellian experience out of what
used to be truly fun. (I discovered Ebay before most people, by sheer luck . I
made a ton of money (not Hershenson/Heritage bucks, but enough to delight my
simple-minded musician ass). It was great...and then came those
"improvements"......
Two words attracted me to this new, Alibaba-owned company... "Mom and Pop".
That's me. I'll be giving it a try.
It's possible....VERY possible...that China is going to be what our country
used to be if they keep up with ideas like this. But, who knows? They're
already starting to pull a few bonehead moves....that dang greed!....and should
have a close look at what happened to japan.
But back to the topic at hand: I'll be stopping by 11 Main for at least a
serious look and a few trial sales.
