<< <i>If it also included $0 FVF's, then I'd be all over it >>
Haha! no kidding if only they did that

I am listing and photoing many coins but no way can I do the 250 cause I AM going fishing in the thick fog
<< <i>I'm already pushing the 200 per year thing so I'm passing. >>
Sounds like you are avoiding taxes ....... are you in the 1 %
I could save $25. and if we got enough people to list this way, we could "OCCUPY EBAY"
I use to keep anywhere from 100 too 200 in my not sold auction and when these days came up
I would list them for free. Then a few weeks ago I noticed that most of those old auctions
that where qued up in there just vanished. I guess eBay firgued out what i was doing by
saving them and not deleting the not sold auctions. The rascals.
merse
eBay can kiss my...
<< <i>I hate when they do this. Just fills up the site with a ton of listings at inflated priced in hopes that someone buys something for more than it is worth. >>
But others like myself, are able to list fairly priced items for free that may cost up to 2 bucks before, I have sold many items this way.
I did occupy ebay with a bunch of really cute Baby Harbor Seal Photos that I would not pay to list on ebay as it is not a good way to sell art.
