Too bad about that big box U2... at least he doesn't threaten to leave negative fb on snipers, seen that happen a few times (and it always struck me as the most inane thing to do when selling on eBay). /Alexander -Original Message- From: Stefan Lindblom [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, February 02, 2003 3:00 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [SWCollect] Ebay Gets Crazier and Crazier Mmm was thinking about that one myself since I dont have Ultima II.. but like you say, all the crap, his own rules.. makes you wanna puke.

Re: [SWCollect] Ebay Gets Crazier and Crazier
Hey that sounds familiar.. my friend Pedro keep sending me such links all the time.. ;) But on Ebay..insane indeed, Ebay is not what it was like when I roamed there 3 years ago. Anyway, I tried to mail her with some requests, she called me pervert. Go figure. (No you shouldnt always take me seriously) :) But still.. is that kind of stuff allowed nowadays? Maybe it is, have no clue about the adult rules on Ebay. - Original Message - From: Edward Franks [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, February 02, 2003 2:44 AM Subject: Re: [SWCollect] Ebay Gets Crazier and Crazier On Saturday, February 1, 2003, at 07:34 PM, Stefan Lindblom wrote: Appearantly since I am a non US Ebaydealer I can't view mature stuff.

And I Automatically Don't Trust Anyone Who Inexplicably Uses Mixed Caps Throughout The Entire Sentence. I'm leery of anyone that whines about getting negative feedback. Rightly or wrongly I tend to suspect someone that has to justify their policy. No one likes negative feedback, but you are bound to run across someone that you can't square things with at some point. You just take the hit and move on. This person's policy comes across as feedback extortion: Don't leave me negative feedback I don't like or I'll get you!.
