The amount of money I\'ve saved off of weird stuff like camera batteries and phone chargers makes the stress of dealing with people on ebay well worth it.  Hmmmm, 45$ for the camera battery in a store or 5$ including shipping on ebay.

It just sucks for high profile items, in vid\'s case, the wii, because the amount of douchebags and scammers increases exponentially when dealing with those items.

Quote from: Mr. Kennedy
In all honesty, if a deal looks too good to be true, it probably is.  I had a guy on ebay say he would let me pay whatever I want for a HDTV, only he would only take money orders...

so yeah, i would say one out of every hundred ebay sellers are scam artist (bad ones at that).


but it wasn\'t a good deal.  I paid a premium because I couldn\'t find it anywhere.

Usually if you see a guy with a tonne of items suddenly for sale, especially expensive and in demand items (which don\'t match up to former sales), it\'s usually an account that has been hijacked through a weak password or phishing.... and then the scammers get in and out.  They hope to delay you from following through and complaining as long as possible to extract the most money from people before they get shut down.  REPORT!

I finally did get the darn thing.  SHe didn\'t even pack it in a box.  She just put a brown bag around the darn thing and shipped it ground.  insane.  I had already bought another one so I sold it on ebay for a little more than I bought it for.  Then my wife saw one at Target today so I am going to put another on EBAY and get my price down to a normal amount.

yeah, but the delay was it took her 9 days to ship it.  And on day 4 she told me she had already shipped it.  She sucked.

Found out it was a she throught the process.  Chick is a nutcase.  Started spewing that I was calling her names and shit.  Very odd.  I never called her anything, except a liar.  WHich she was.  very odd human beings up in Boston.

This I agree with. I much prefer FedEX tracking system.  I know I\'ve had stuff delivered to my house and still been listed as "In Transit" for the rest of the day. i\'ve also had the complete opposite happen.
