Yes, grandson, there was once this magical place where you could find wonderful things for really good prices. It was kind of like everyone was helping others and having fun auctioning off stuff they didn't need to people who did need it! I got some really good deals in those days.
But, just like a good fishing hole, the more people who discovered it the greedier they got and it became pretty well fished out. Most retail stores can undersell E-Bay prices, these days.
If that isn't bad enough...these brain trusts who run that circus decide to make things better for everybody. I haven't quite figured this one out yet but, somehow these new policies require that they hold my money, after I've made a sale, and even hold it a few days after it's been delivered. After years of trading on E-Bay I still haven't established myself as a solid merchant, because I don't sell enough things. What in the hell are they doing???
I guess they came up with this Idea so they could collect interest on millions of dollars, for a few days, after every sale.
Am I being stupid because I am insulted by this rip off. Is it smart business or greed?
I'm gonna miss E-Bay. They were a good resource even with the pricing problem.
