a pet peeve about ebay-ersPosted Oct-05-07 09:33:10 PDT don't tell me i am the only one out there that feels this way..... absolutely can't stand when some big bidder comes in and outbids you ....only to turn around and separate a lot to resale for profits....... save the excitement to us collectors that really want the stuff.... go get a real job....or at least hunt the estate sales to bring here.... |
