When eBay was very strict with amp sales,

I sold a Cobra 450XL amp

I sold it as is not working, parts only.

It listed for $200 buy it now

I said the amp worked just fine BEFORE I took the fuse out. I needed the fuse for another project. It would no longer work without the fuse so you had to buy a new fuse. For this reason it is being sold as a part amp.

It sold

I even included the fuse when I shipped it

I got positive feedback

I won an auction for a radio.....it was listed as used "used" on ebay means that it works but may have a few flaws....guess what....if it does not work....I am gonna want my money back.

I like the dudes that post a popular style of radio and sell it as is, or untested and sold for parts, but they'll put a big BIN or a high reserve price.

They warn you it may not work, but yet, place a "working" price on it.

TOOLS!

I too hate capitalism!

I have several hobbies in which I buy and sell different shit for a long time.

I have found that HAMS are usually the most tight assed bunch around. I've damned near kicked a few asses on down the row at hamfests. Cheap bastards come to your table, mill around touching, drooling, fondling and pawing your shit and doing their best to talk you down to a fraction of what's it's worth. I usually tell the cheap turds that it ain't eating nothing.

There ain't nothing wrong with haggling, but come on, don't insult a guy.

Case in point: One reason a decent guy can't post in the swap section.

 

[Eastside]

See what I mean.

Ripping people off then calling it capitalism is a thief hiding behind a "word" and that is all it is.

 

[GnG8d]

Well lets petition our leaders to add yet another tax so we can set up an oversight committee for bringing down the eBay ripoff artists.

Fuck capitalism, lets just pay the government to control the prices on everything. Lets work for free and let the government supply our needs. Or hell, let's just not work and let the government supply our needs.

BooHoo, I need some protection from evil eBay sellers .......

When was the last time someone twisted your arm behind your back and held a gun to your head forcing you to buy something you didn't want?
