Thanks Leon for stating the facts. I appreciate your support and your site. I have personally been a member for about 2 years. I use this site alot for insight, opinions and also for some really great information. I haven't posted more than a handful of times, because I just haven't had the need to say much hence the quote "Never argue with a fool, onlookers may not be able to tell the difference". By Mark Twain (Posted above by RichardSimon).
However, I would like to state one very important fact regarding my experience on Ebay. I have picked up some very fine items via what I felt were extremely high BINs. The title says "Buy It Now - OR Best Offer" for a reason. This means that someone is willing to sell an item at the RIGHT price. I find it very challenging and fun to be able to negotiate for an item and get it at a fair price, or as I have often done, at a better-than-fair price. To me this is part of the enjoyment I get out of collecting. The fact that a seller puts an item on Ebay means to me that they do want to sell, but you just have to find their "Sweet Spot". Often, they are just not super motivated or maybe they just need to be able to say that they've tried to get the highest price possible. It was only when I stopped reacting emotionally to their redicilously high BIN price, that I was able to have some fun with it, and negotiate some great deals.Because to me I have no issues with free trade - That's what our counrty was founded on - and if someone actually GETS the price they are asking, good for them! I only get hurt myself IF I CHOOSE to overpay.
Yes, I am doing everything I can to promote my auction company - paid for or otherwise - I would be a fool not to...
Best regards,
