I to attended the Austin Show. It was my first time. I wanted to see it because
I plan to setup at the next show. I was surprised to see the lack of old music,
and the price of what was there. Also the Antique week in Round Top was going
on. There I picked up several nice 78's from 1920's - 195o's. Also I got some
very nice LP's and 45's. I saw a box of cylinders for $100 but they where in
very rough condition. I bought a Victor VV4-3 and VV-VI both in nice playable
condition and cosmetically an 8 out of 10. I paid $250 for the both of them and
got a stack of 78's with them.

Subject: [Phono-L] Suckerpunched by eBay & Vic III for sale
Message-ID: <[email protected]>
?Okay, it finally happend. Afte defending eBay (mentally if not physically on
this board) for a long time, I got my comeupance today.?Two days ago?I put
several items on eBa for sale, including a nice Vic III that I have. I am
DESPERATELY trying to raise $2800 in a short time to buy a harp to replace?mine
(which developed structural problems).? I need to raise this money SOON!? So I
listed some phonoe items that were near and dear to my heart, including the
III. You may remember what I went through trying to get a back bracket for it.
So this morning, I find that eBay has REMOVED my items because I did the unholy
deed of saying I accept Paypal and personal checks (held for clearance).
Apparently you cannot accept mone order or personal checks on ebay any more. I
didn't know this because I don't?read every piece of claptrap that ebay sends
me. I use the Turbolister to create my listings, and it caugh that I offered to
accept money orders, and it gave me an error code on that. So I changed it. BUT
it did NOT give me an error code on the term personal checks.? So I guess some
grunt at ebay whose job it is to check such things found it and pulled m
auctions. I had $460 in bids on the III when it was pulled. They sent some sort
of email to my bidders telling them the items were being pulled. I was FURIOUS.
I wrote them an angry letter, and they basicall said too bad. They were nice
about it, bt at the end of the letter it said I should not respond because they
would not receive it. Nice
and caring.? Anyhoe I relisted most of the stuff, and the Vic III is item
number 110374580209.? I am so desperate to raise the cash that my buy it now on
this item is only $1995, which is less money than I have into it. So if you
want a deal, there it is.? As for ebay, they disguise their corporate greed
behid the veil of 'protecting their sellers from fraud'. They own Paypal, so of
course they want you to use it exclusively. Arrgh. Thanks for leting me vent.
And thanks for reading this far.?

Although you can't say it on The bay, I think you can tell buyers after the
fact that you will accept other forms of payment.
