LOL.....yeah sure.

Here's to you mrs Robertson

Ebay
Dear John letters are for when they make you "no longer a registered user."
$16k since the first of the year (ie...just over a month) isn't really chump change.....I know there are bigger buyers on ebay, but I would think that ~$192,000 per year, by one buyer, is pretty good as an ebay user/member.
I spend CONSIDERABLY less and usually get a good number of the ebucks promotions. Not every single one, but a goodly number. I don't think I spend $16k in a year with them.
Of course, they claim it is all random. Their developers have something bogus going on.
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment
You can have your cryptocurrencies. I'll take the old readies any day.

That post nails it. Ebay is a miss at most any curve.
I get seller promotions sometimes and I'm glad I don't get buyer promotions. I would be tempted to buy crap I don't need.
I’m so confused.
Join the club.
I'm still "decoding" how the OP's Ebay rant is related to this Cryto fund owner's death ...
@ttown Create a second ebay account. 97.9% of the time if I don't get a bucks promo on my main account, I get it on my secondary account....and having two accounts is well within the terms of use of ebay.
I also receive additional selling offers on my secondary account on occasion. Having two different accounts is a good way to keep your buying and selling separated.
don't get in the way of a good rant just go with the flow
ok just to clarify which of the ten commandments addresses having more than one ebay account?
Gawd i like a good stream of consciousness post! Made a few back in the day, but after 16 years, feel like I've said most of what there is to say, but new news provides different angles, so once in a while I'll get the spark and go into a musing.
So eBay and paypal used to take more of my time and energy, probably made 500 sales, and may list again as i have a lot of silver and a little gold I'd like to sell at favorable prices, which we read on here in other threads are just around the corner--except we turn the corner and silver is still under 20, never mind 30 so selling is on hold for the time being.
Still buying on ebay once in a blue moon, very little appeals anymore, They just keep cranking out more and more modern Stuff, disillusioning to see how many different kinds of bars and rounds there are, and how much easier bulk metal is to buy than sell.
The cryptos, no thanks, not seeing anything but ponzi schemes in coins and tokens, great for ground floor but it's getting late in the grift, of course the blockchain tech will be A Thing, but have no faith in Bitcoin nor especially smaller ones.

I know a coin weenie who's hurting. I told him it would be okay, as long as he doesn't expect his U.S. Mint purchases to go up in value. Not that this has anything to do with crypto currency or ebay, but since he doesn't use a computer I thought it would be nice to rant for him
It's easy for me, "cash is king" !!!
Buying on ebay and the stacking of generics:
The ebay market (and other big PM buyers) speaks -- generics do not command much of a resell premium if any or if back of spot.
Try some classic old gold. They are getting harder to sell at spot or over. However, they will never have the "bullion dreck" label. And I've gotten ahold of a lot of the common date saints in the run in AU. That is a great way to stack, imo.
Reminds me of an old joke:
A Mafia Godfather finds out that his bookkeeper, Guido, has cheated him out of $10 million dollars. His bookkeeper is deaf. That was the reason he got the job in the first place. It was assumed that Guido would hear nothing so he would not have to testify in court. When the Godfather goes to confront Guido about his missing $10 million, he takes along his lawyer who knows sign language.
The Godfather tells the lawyer, "Ask him where the money is!
The lawyer, using sign language, asks Guido, Where's the money?
Guido signs back, "I don't know what you are talking about." The lawyer tells the Godfather, "He says he doesn't know what you are talking about"
The Godfather pulls out a pistol, puts it to Guido's head and says, "Ask him again or I'll kill him!"
The lawyer signs to Guido, "He'll kill you if you don't tell him."
Guido trembles and signs back, "OK! You win! The money is in a brown briefcase, buried behind the shed at my cousin Bruno's house.
The Godfather asks the lawyer, "What did he say?"
The lawyer replies, "He says you don't have the balls to pull the trigger."
That's a good one !!!
