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 have had pretty good luck on ebay.
I did learn one nasty lesson.
If you have multiple email addresses and the buyer makes a payment via paypal to an address you no longer have access to, paypal will send the money back to the sender after 30 days.
My email address used to be faddis@home.com.
I sold something on ebay and the buyer made the payment via paypal to faddis@home.com
@home went out of business and I could no longer retrieve the emails.
I forgot the password to my paypal account.
I couldn't reset the password because my @home account was dead.
I got busy and figured no big deal the money will still be there.
Paypal sent the money back after 30 days because I didn't claim it.
