Okay, here's the story. For the last couple of months I've been buying cards off of ebay from the guy who's store I shop at locally. They're not his cards. He sells them on ebay for other customers. I've been buying a lot for really cheap and then flipping them. So, today my wife comes home and tells me that my sister-in-law (her sister) has been spying on me and is pissed at me. Apparently she's made because I'm spending all my money on baseball cards instead of paying off the grill I bought from her husband. What she doesn't understand is all the money that I've been using to pay him off is from flipping those cards.
I REALLY HATE IT WHEN PEOPLE PUT THEIR NOSE IN MY BUSINESS!!! So, apparently this has been going on for quite some while now without my knowledge of it. My wife didn't know either. How can I block my sister-in-law from seeing my account. Like what I've been buying and selling? Because I called her and told her to keep her nose out of my business, but she won't. Is it possible to do this? I mean I dont' want her to see everything I'm doing. Does any of this make sense? I mean she's really putting a damper on my baseball card buying/selling.
Any help would be appreciated.

You'll have to create a new Ebay account. Use it to buy, and your original to sell. Just don't share your new ID with that spying biaatch.

word.
Is your wife mad at you? As long as your sis in law isn't getting your wife mad at you, what does it matter. Explain it to her like you did here. That it takes time to buy, grade and then sell.
Are you paying off your bro in law as you agreed upon?
And/or do what Talon has posted.
Tell your wife to tell her that you're flipping the cards to help pay off the grill. That's they key though, have your wife do the talking. If your sis-in-law is ticked off at you, then it won't matter what you tell her directly.
You could also agree on an ammount to pay back every month too. Stick to that, and she'll have no reason to gripe.

Great minds think alike!! That was my first thought too. Only create an Ebay auction to sell the pictures - since she does monitor all activity there.
But then I do like to p1ss people off alot.
All of the sudden i had an 80's flashback with the photo comment---"She's my cherry pie.........
If she has a nice face you could make some money and pay off her husband.
"Here's the money for your grill bro. Thank the little woman for me. Say do you have any naked pictures of your wife?"
No offense meant. Just a warped mind working.

Looking for Al Hrabosky and any OPC Dave Campbells (the ESPN guy)
go buy a new grill before buy a family members used one. Also how much was the grill just asking because
if you can't afford to buy a grill out right you may not want be spending all your money on baseball cards
just a thought.
Nothing worse than meddling in laws.
your sister in law needs to mind her own pathetic business.
by the way...is she hot?
Take a picture of the grill, put it up for auction on ebay and we'll ALL bid on it... pretend to sell it for more than you owe. We can take a donation here to cover your ebay fees.
That'll teach her!
this is the least of your problems. When you solve this problem she will find another. Your account is
not your problem, your sister in law is. Can't do a thing about it cause then your wife will be mad at
you. Live with it my friend. Aren't in laws wonderful?

HOW is this not the sister-in-law's biznez?
The creditor-husband is likely telling his wife, "As soon as Guru pays
me, I will buy you" (whatever it is she happens to be witching for).
The expression of anger in families is usually a result of cumulative
disappointment. Family members tend to cut each other a reasonable
amount of slack, but revolt at "the straw that broke the camel's back."
"Neither a lender nor a borrower be," is good advice for family members
to heed.
1. A debt to your sister-in-law's husband.
2. A nosy sister-in-law.
If you are bothered so much by these problems that you're posting about it on the Internet, I would guess that these problems are really getting to you.
You must take charge of the situation.
First, make paying off that debt a priority in your life - even if it gets in the way of your card collecting.
Second, never ever borrow money from a relative unless your life depends on it. Buying a grill doesn't qualify: getting bailed out of jail does.
Third, chances are your debt is causing trouble in your marriage. At the very least your wife is getting an earful from her sister, and the only way to shut her up is to pay off the debt. That will make points with your Wife and help your marriage in the long run.
Did you ever pay the grill off yet?
Just do it man! She cant be that bad looking!

<< <i>Yea, I got the grill paid off. Then I sold it in payment for someone to come do work around my house all summer. They told me that they would come do yard work and house repairs other than mowing the lawn all summer if I'd give them the grill. I used it once and it almost fell apart on me. I'm pretty sure I got the better end of the deal. >>
No mowing the lawn?? What a panty-waste.

we've all been there.
Tonight she made hot wings for me before I came home for the Yanks vs. Tribe. She even made lemon pie. She's pretty awesome not just for doing stuff, but she's just pretty awesome all around. She listens me go on rants about cards and discussions on here when I know she probably could care less, but she sure acts like she cares. Pretty awesome.
The sister, well, I don't know. She's just weird I guess. I think she does things just to piss me off. I don't let it really bother me anymore. Especially since she doesn't know what the heck she's doing when it comes to cards. She thought it would be a quick buck. Ha ha. Jokes on her.
<< <i>Yea, now that the grill is paid off she realized that there's some money in certain cards on Ebay. She went and bought a case of 07 A&G and then tried to sell me a box for $130's. I was like, WHAT THE H-E-DOUBLE HOCKEY STICK is going on here. I told her, I can get them most certainly cheaper than that pretty much anywhere. >>

Are you overdue on a pay back date? If so, relax, you deserve some criticism and scrutiny.
Who is she reselling them to?! Certainly not you, or anyone smart enough to get boxes for $110-or-less.
And what kind of crazy woman, who knows nothing about trading cards, tries to make a buck off of flipping modern boxes?
I'm glad that if I marry my g/f, my sister in law would simply be a hot 18-year-old whose main flaw is making me so glad she's no longer jailbait.

We could bombard her with silly questions.
If she just said so, OK, she's just a beyotch.
If she actually bought them, then she's certified nutso... send her in to PSA. Gem Mint 10 (Crazy). Maybe "Not Holdered, Evidence Psycho."

I would NEVER give you advice that I wouldn't take myself.
My best take?
Ignore the crap outa her - from what I've read - she's bad news and is tryin' to suck you in.
As long as your wife knows what you're doing? I wouldn't give a rats ass what she thinks.
And I agree with anyone here who says - don't buy anything from relatives - it can only come back to bite ya in the ass. Exception are probably rare.

Wow.
Yeah, what stone said and good luck
<< <i>I'm glad that if I marry my g/f, my sister in law would simply be a hot 18-year-old whose main flaw is making me so glad she's no longer jailbait. >>
That was funny.
As for this story, once we got to the sister-in-law A&G case I had to get the wading boots cause it was gettin' pretty deep. I think it started out legit and somehow went south.
Edit to add: I'm done with this thread guys. I'm finding it making me more angry at the situation. This happend a while back, the grill thing that is, and I'm finding that this is interfering now with my "happy time" on the boards. So, feel free to continue to comment, but I gotta move on for my own sanity. Thanks!
<< <i>I liked it cut and trimmed a certain way. >>
thats what i told her.
<< <i>I'm glad that if I marry my g/f, my sister in law would simply be a hot 18-year-old whose main flaw is making me so glad she's no longer jailbait. >>
me and you should be brother in laws.
Seriously though, this is why I never deal with family. Too many headaches.
