Since the demise of the old 914 club site.....man I used to sell a lot over there....and the slow selling of stuff on this site....YEAH I know the format is anti spam, I have posted my first Evil bay sale.....

I swore I would never do it.....but hey, I said I would never have kids either. I hope I don't get hooked and start selling Mom's jewelry and stuff.

On my third "buy"....I feel like I am buying a baggy of herb..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
my bank issued a flawed money order.....it was an error on the teller but they issued a stop on a $8.30 cent MO.....I bought a stupid antique sticker for a gas pump I was restoring. Guy blasted me without even emailing me and asking WTF.......

Put me off the bay for a couple of years.....

Anyone else have any horror stories?

I've done pretty well with minimal issues.


I made a mistake early on by not checking which account Paypal was using, and had a payment recalled. I sent again with out realizing that paypay repayed using a debit card. So, the seller got paid twice for a marginal engine lid end refused to send back one payment. Paypal and ebay was no help because he said he shipped the item.

I've had a couple of non paying buyers. Those only cost me to relist the items.

Last auction I won and paid for was not shipped. The seller skipped town and left a lot of buyers with no goods. All acounts were closed, so I couldn't get paypal to refund monies. Only out 15 bucks.

In over 60 transactions, most were smooth and easy.
