    ".........state that if you do not follow my terms you WILL be blocked,"

    //////////////////////////////////////////////

    According to all of eBay's focus group info, any kind of
    "negative terms" in a listing deters more good buyers
    than bad buyers.

    I have long resisted the temptation to put anything in
    listings that might interfere with the smooth hypnotic
    mood that needs to be created in good buyers.

    We all need to find a better way. Or, better yet,
    scamBay needs to stop allowing bad buyers and
    sellers to use the "venue."

    BTW, 10 days is within the USPS "margin of delay."

    yes,

    thanks for the info about here. I just pm'd him.

    He did email me today sometime.

    I just got home from work today. I went in at 6am and was supposed to leave at 6pm........that is until some DUI moron crashed into a parked car after 5pm.

    If it's the same Slats - I agree with PM'ing him.

    I spoke with him a while back - seems like a nice guy.

    Good luck Goose.

    still no payment and I went ahead and filed 2 NPB's on ebay to recoup my fees.

    he's now NARU'd.

    Note...I had edited my original post because I had been contacted at that time.


    I swear...these low dollar 15 and 20.00 cards and a few of the people that win them each week really piss me off.

    I hate when guys return $2.00 raw cards because "they don't look as good as the scan." There are a lot of a$$holes in the world.

    I do not have the time now, but next year I would like to
    open an eBay store that ONLY allows pre-approved buyers.
    Very exclusive, only a few high-dollar sales a week, and no
    problems with AHs.

    There are a lot of "pre-approved" operators currently on eBay,
    but most all of them are scamsters engaged in fee-avoidance.

    Here is how those scams work: (eBay is cracking down on them,
    so none of this info is a secret, but some here may not know about
    it.)

    You open a store and stock it with 50 to 100 items. You run a few CORE
    listings in either auction or FP. These listings offer more than one of the same item
    in the same listing. The listing requires the buyer to click a link "to be
    approved." When you click, you are taken to a store page that allows
    you to buy the product that originally caught your eye. You are also
    "encouraged" to buy other store items. This technique allows the
    CORE listings to remain in the main search, and they are simply relisted
    as "billboards" every 10-days, and they never make any sales.

    (eBay claims the violation involves "forced link to other items.")

    If a seller had really nice stuff, I think a legitimate "pre-approved" upscale store
    might do pretty well.
