Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Great desciption...NOT!!

["Eddie Stakes" <eddiestakes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have bought and sold from debit-credit, who is a good ebayer. Their
description sucks in this auction, almost seems like angry to sell it. My
guess is that since it was custom made they are taking a loss perhaps? On
the large comment, hell some of those 'Rock Star Gremlin' shirts Wal Mart
had I bought said XXL. I quickly realized it had been worn by Lin Sing in
China where it was made. Big difference between XXL Chinese guy and XXL
American guy. We burger supersize. They ricecake supersize. You big boy, eat
lot food, we lose money you come buffet, go now!

John, I think when they say 'it fits tight but has never been worn and is
brand new' chances are it was not worn by the seller. However grampa wore
it, and possibly the homeless guy on the corner selling Houston Chonicle
papers.

Not sure why they would not want any tire kickers. Shit, oops, shirt kickers
maybe. Dreamers, yes, those should be welcome, especially for a $20 shirt.
This is Sunday's The Lord's Day for those of you who go to church. This
would be a great Sunday Go To Meeting shirt too.

The fedEx comment is strange. This shirt would be $5 to ship from Priority
Mail anywhere in the US. However, about $10 by FedEx.

On the free option that let's ebay automatically figure shippipng, you will
find that a majority of time it is off, causing someone to lose money, at
least that is why I quit using it, usually off by $3! And not sure why,
weight was configured in properly too. On the Canadian comment, it's my
experience, nothing more, why you see many people no longer shipping to
Canada is that their banks are smacking them with a FEE for COLLECTIONS on
items like Canadian Postal Money Orders. If you look at any of my auctions
in there it states no paypal, no plastic, no Canadian Postal Money orders.
My bank started charging me last October. I will take Canadian checks on a
Canadian bank/US funds only for instance, like Bank of Toronto, a big one
just came in yesterday. I think it was the hassle factor to ship to Canada,
maybe the fees too. Customs forms, large or small. But if you sell a Johnny
Lightning for $5, and ship was $5 the bank (mine) would charge me $1 fee for
'collections' on Canadian Postal Money orders, so simply quit taking them.

Maybe in thsi case the seller was scared of that drunk Scottish dude on the
front of Canadian Tire Money, he looks like a weirdo. Sounds like seller
might need to go to decaf in this one however.

I sure like seller's 10 foot AMC dealership lighted sign however, but would 
have to somehow find tiny Nashville on a map, I believe it is in Virginia, 
near New Mexico.

Here's another great one, but in a different way.

Ignoring the fact that this is in NO WAY an AMC item...
it's just a red, white and blue shirt, check out how
the seller angrily tells you how badly he doesn't want
you to buy it by restricting payment and shipping so
much that you'd be better to drive out, hand him cash
and carry it home yourself.

I got a chuckle out of it. See if you do...

Quote:

"AMC AMX Javelin pit race shirt or show shirt. This
shirt was custom made and is size large (I wear a large
and it is a little tight under my arms but it is size
large)."

This means it's a medium, essentially, and useless to
most of us.

"It is made of a mixture of cotton and polyester.
The colors are red, white and blue. It has never been
worn and is brand new."

It's tight under his arms...and never worn...hmm....a
paradox?

"No refunds so ask questions before you bid. Only ask
questions if you are a serious buyer, no tire kickers
or dreamers!!!"

Yea, you guys that dream of one day owning a shirt, don't
waste his time!

"Buyer pays actual Fed-X shipping from zip code 37188.
Please do not ask me to figure shipping!! I can't figure
shipping 20 times for each item that I sell; I just don't
have the time. I will figure FED-X shipping for the
winning bidder only!!"

Gee, perhaps he should have checked the free option that
lets eBay's system automatically calculate the costs based
on the bidders zip code?

"I will not ship to anywhere but the continental U.S., so
don't even ask (no foreign countries this includes Canada)!!"

When! Thank goodness he cleared that up before I treated
anymore Canadians like fellow citizens. Now I can treat like
any other icky foreigner!

"If you are from a foreign country and win the bid, I will
go to the backup bidder then give you negative feed back!!"

Gosh-darn Canadians and their funny money!! The beer nuts
dispenser at the bar won't take their quarters!

"I only take money orders or cashier's checks."

Yea, the kind of payments he can disappear with and leave
you little to no recourse. Love those!

"Please no registered mail for payment because it takes me
to long to pick it up at the post office."

Yea, cuz Nashville is a tiny town in the middle of nowhere...
must be real far to the Post Office! More likely he doesn't
want to have to SIGN for anything...that's called 'evidence'.

"Make sure to check out my other auction items on EBay now!!!"

Oh, you know I have to now, after the warm and fuizzy feeling
this one left me with!
