Dear Father, May All Who Serve Be Protected By Angel Wings Sempre Fi!

Sometimes Ya Just gotta Say something...

Airgrunt,I just read your charity auction,and no way would I bid. Not because of the product,but because of your description.And your hatefullness,and Vengeance.

The cards are beautiful,and I sell them myself,I go to the store,and look though tons of them,to get the really good ones,and make sure they are in New Condition.So what is wrong with that? It makes the buying experience pleasent for the buyer. They get a nice set of cards,delivered right to their home? When it is all said and done,there is about 1.25 profit.

Is this not the way millions of sellers do their business? I guarentee you,there are million of items,literally,that are sold on ebay,in this very same manner.

Ebay is a huge mixture,of every kind of product.

If there is a Dollar Store in every town,folks wouldn't buy the items they buy on ebay,or maybe they don't wanna spend the time and gas to go to one?????

What do you think people do to get the items they sell???????

Millions of avenues,there is also a store here,I buy items at,when they mark them down,and it is not a dollar store,and get great deals,and pass them on,case in point,I had some Grateful Dead Trivets,they sold well,and again I made a tiny profit,but i dug through tons of em,to get the unscathed ones.

There are many dollar Stores where I live,5 miles that way> and 8 miles that way<,HOWEVER, I,just last night bought an item from a Dollar Store,from a seller on ebay,,that is unavalable where I live.

I can also go to local yard sales and find many tshirts,and baby items that I have bought on here,but,it is easier for me to buy on here,especially if I am not feeling good,or do not have the gas,or what the heck ever.

You were not grossly overcharged,and if you had acess to these very cards airgrunt,then why did YOU BUY THEM?????????

The whole thing is sad. People are trying to help each other out and buy from them and it seems to me that it isn't fair that they are getting all this crap, from helping out fellow bloggers sales. Just my opionion, because I have also bought many items that I really did not need so that I could help out others as well.

Hi lucky,Hi roc

Letting it go,yes sometimes that is feasible,but sometiomes it is not.

There is a point here.

Dogsnose,your buscuits I'm sure are super,but I can go to the Dollar Store and buy tons more,for less price,just an example here.

Thanks they are darleen, but what you buy at the dollar store walmart all have corn meal and fillers in them, They are very bad for dogs to eat, With being a vet tech for 4 years and 1 year in vet med. I know that what you give your dogs from the store can give them health problems, studies have shown that giving fillers and corn meal to a dog and give then urine cystals, and more. Its like Old Roy or Kibbles or Bits, Crap food, Would you wanna eat McDonalds everyday? Nope

Here's my thought for what it is worth, which isn't much around the blogs of late lol, if you are personally responsible for BUYING items, begging or no begging, than SHUT UP when it's completed! My god if I bought from everyone begging money I'd be BROKER than them, if you don't want to give via buying or bidding than DON'T...Simple as that!

darleen, if you buy items for resale the DOLLAR TREE may be a good option. I find thier items much superior to the Dollar Store. They have some name brand scrap booking supplies that sell here at the scrap book store between 6 and 8 dollars each and they are a $1.00 for the identical item.

I guess you didnt really read the auction then....

I guess you only want to read what you want and NOT see what is there...

The cards were bought with the intention of giving them as a gift....

They was DAMAGED....

I turned my negative experience into a postive Charity giving experience and had to give the story why they was being auctioned....

I am NOT a vandictive person...I don't have a mean bone in my body...
Hoever, I am NOT going to let people call me out and bully me.
Send me an e-mail but to call me out like this is TOTALLY WRONG...Momma said two wrongs don't make a right.

OH AND BY THE WAY....YOU KNEW THAT I WAS LEAVING BECAUSE IT WAS IN MY LAST POST BEFORE THIS ONE THAT SAID THAT I WASN'T GOING TO BE AROUND FOR A WHILE.....

I CALL THAT BEING A COWARD!

Well if you don't have a mean bone in your body,then color me skinny and green ok.

and how was I doing anything behind your back.I put it on the open floor.

You call me a 'coward',perhaps,that needs to be examined a bit more.
