Arrow I'm so old that eBay wasn't even eBay yet ... *laughing*

I've been with eBay before eBay was eBay!



It actually was auctionweb.com ... *laughing*,
I'm one of the many 'originals' there.... unfortunately
my nasty divorce and (can I say stupid ex?) Judge's
orders to wipe the account out (well it was under my
stupid ex's name but I did all the work) - with over,
10,000+ feedbacks, 1 neutral and no negatives, 5
accounts... and tons of repetitive customers. (Remember
only 1 feedback is unique, no matter how many they
leave you)

eBay just wasn't the same like the "Good Old Days"
when they started to get greedy!



All I was doing was breaking even. *sigh*

Gone was the "Bid Warz" ~ all the fun watching 20-30-40
people fighting over an item, bidding like crazy, was gone
and some items would have left you with ....



Remember the Bug in a Jar? (DOA of course)

Tattoo my Boobs? Then the other one Tattoo my head?

Nekkid man on Teakettle? (Well he didn't realize it but
people caught on to it only AFTER the auction image
was displayed and someone blew it up, and yeah, he
was nekkid alright - *laughing* and eBay uses that
to teach you what NOT to do in eBay selling!)

And other outlandish things including the military jet
(and yes, that was legal and tender) ...

*laughing*

While I have rapport with the Top Staff, but it just isn't
the same anymore; even though I had to start all over
from scratch (I did have another 'backup account' which
was under my name and my ex tried to wipe that one
out too - geesh!).

But there's a lot of other places you can list for free or
cheap ...

Check out Power Sellers Unite

And you'll find other auction sites available that you can
list elsewhere (especially if you have multiple items) that
you can list for free or nearly next to nothing and many
of these places - allows you to import your eBay feedbacks
to their site so you can have a reputation there too and
be able to display your eBay items on their site as well.

Hope all these goodies help!
