Ebay is like the Wild West.....

Mike, if you’re buying, I would rather have his $100,000.00 Messi card.

The ways of EBay keeps going and the many people that like go play their games

It is interesting watching it sometimes but it make using eBay that much harder

Jeff,

I had the same thought last night and with the repeated USPS horror stories, my Ebay purchases have literally halted as of 3 months ago before the holiday rush. Too many scammers and too few postal workers.

Crazy times indeed.

Thanks! Mike

Apparently the LAPD does not have jurisdiction over train track smash and grab. It is the responsibility of the Union Pacific Police. oh my!!!

The Union Pacific Police are based in Omaha, Nebraska. I hope they are on their way.

Local CBS affiliate ran a story on this with the image above.

LAPD has jurisdiction but has to have a complaint from the property owner to get involved--that's the sacrosanct private property system for ya.

I'm getting to the point where my compassion is exhausted. Our next mayoral election is going to be decided on this single issue, because the bums are wrecking our parks and public spaces, destroying our amenities, and stealing everything they can get their hands on. We got bedbugs in the fall riding the subway because of the bums using the subway as a crash pad. Cost me $3,000 and a month of living out of a suitcase to de-bug the house.

To paraphrase Captain Kirk in The Trouble With Tribbles, "I want them out of my city. I don't care if takes every man we've got, I want them out of the city."



If only we could beam them into the Klingons' engine room...

We don't mollycoddle them up here in the Dakotas so they like you all a lot better and will stay there.

OMG, as a long-time eBay member (basically when they started, boy the time sure flies) I cannot believe how they have become the flea market. Add to it, with all the trinkets, gee-gaws and fakes, their search has morphed over and over with "beta" new updates and upgrades that it is virtually impossible to find what you are searching for now.

After the “upgrade” a few months ago where you couldn’t search by sport and it basically killed all my saved searches I’m done with eBay. Only forums, Twitter and FB for me. Says a lot when I trust those more than Ebay. At least I can somewhat know the ppl I am dealing with
