  • Hello Russell
    You have been here for two years, and you’ve made 25923 Posts. You still make lame jokes. In all that wasted time, I wonder if you have said one thing worth remembering! I have learned from you! I won’t play the fool in someone else’s play! I leave that to those who do it so much better than I! I hope you and the monkey enjoy your rolls.

    Thanks again!

    I think this would be a good time to review one of Bochiman's posts:

    It's truly funny, no make that truly sad, that people in this day and age are so wrapped up in their own little world that they refuse to try and teach someone else the correct or accepted way of doing things.

    At least Russ and I agree on one thing...and that's the Poe.

    I did take Mr. Poe up on his offer to peruse his website. I saw 2 silver quarters (both SLQ's) that were overgraded by 2 full grades.
    I did the taste test and I chose "no Poe."

    615?

  • BochimanBochiman Posts: 25,556 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Wow!

    Russ quoted me....I feel honored image
    btw....the idiot didn't take me up on that bet image He knew that he would be back and that he really does care about posting here and trying to show how great and satirical he is. What a wit. 512 posts all in his defense. Probably all in this thread (of 634 posts so far....that would make him roughly a little less than 1/12 of the posts).
    Thing is, for all his posting, he hasn't gained any respect. he has lost it. He has gained any buyers/bidders. He has lost them (as mentioned, I almost bid on one of his auctions until the terms made me verify who the seller was then I recognized it and moved on).

    One thing that has been obvious from Poe and his being such a scammer......he protests too much. He cannot reason. He attacks.
    Poe, you, like this thread, have beaten a dead horse. You have nothing new to bring to the party.
    You were found at fault. You were proven to be a liar and a poor (bad) person to deal with. Yes, it was only 1 person/auction to bring you to light (and he wasn't even your neg on ebay...that was someone else that you seemed to have done the same type of deal to) but that is all it took with how you ran to catfish for help and how you, and he, have tried to defend your honor.

    What's interesting is that you went immediately on the attack. If you were fair in your dealings, it would have been different. You don't like how people talk about you nor treat you. Well, I have defended a lot of people, and you weren't one of them. You clearly deserve everything that people have had to say about you so that others don't make the mistake to deal with you.

    So, go about your name calling...it actually made me laugh tonight, and lord knows, I have needed a good laugh this last week. You provided it. Made even funnier by how you cling to the icon that Russ has said that he put into the database. You revile him, you attack him, yet, you cling to his icon.
    I think that, deep down inside, you admire Russ and maybe you even want to be like him! That is why you cling to the icon.

    There are more things that have been noticed about you through your posting but, frankly, you aren't worth it and everyone has already ben well warned.

    Now.....that the things have been said....

  • Hello again!
    I find it so humorous that a monkey would think that I should defend myself to a group of gossiping … Well I have found one thing to redeem Russell, There is at least one other person who has wasted more time and hot air than he! Don’t feel bad though, he has been at it a little longer than you have! What ever you do don’t slow down! If you do the Baboon will run right up your Post count!

  • Poe,
    A long time ago - in a post far away - I asked for advice on shipping on an auction. Russ set me straight. I thought he was wrong initially - but, alas, he was right.

    In fact, you could LEARN a lot from the folks here -- and I have.

    Maybe you should read more and post less. please note: Member since 2002, Posts 760 something ( I think)

  • Hello
    The reason that I don't just "go away" is because if I did you all would move on and pick on some other honest person! I wouldn't even wish that on Matt or the monkey! Yes Russell, I wouldn’t wish it on you ether! I have had five returns and I have refunded Six! I have a neg, but then you most likely didn’t have Mark emailing every one of your bidders with false claims.
    Thanks again!

    I can say this, long before this thread ever appeared, I came across many of your auctions. I never bid, mainly because of two things: the interesting shipping instructions, and the fact that many of the coins appeared to be over dipped and or cleaned. And I don't need glasses to see that.

    My style is impetuous, my defense is impregnable !
  • BochimanBochiman Posts: 25,556 ✭✭✭✭✭
    My oh my....

    I looked in the dictionary to see what "Poe" meant. It referred me to "Moron" and then listed: "Please see Poe58 on ebay".

    Dude....you have NO clue.
    Picking on a coin icon. LOL!
    Trying to pick fights with people with high post counts (dude....that has been done to death already. Take the advice given to read more and post less and you will learn). Also, take a look at Russ' and Kiefer's auctions.....they know what they are doing, don't try to rip people, have return policies without jumping through hoops afire, and don't overgrade/misrepresent coins.

    You should only be half as good and then you could at least be a seller to be worth a risk. But, you aren't, so you aren't.

    Also, the number of positives/negatives you have don't mean anything. Your policies and your attitude (and how honest you are) mean a lot more.
    Mirabela made a mistake and gave you a positive...we know that he didn't mean to. Yet, you count that in your list, right? You then gave him a negative as retaliation. I would trust a transaction with him (with your negative on him) much more than anything from you.
    Also, anyone who has half a brain knows that a lot of ebayers are scared of negatives from sellers so they don't give honest feedback and either don't give feedback at all (how many of THOSE do you have?) or give wimpy positive ones.
    Also, are you one of the sellers who won't give feedback first? Why not? AFRAID???? If you are afraid, maybe you have something to hide? How about before you screwed mirabela? Did you post before your buyers then? Why not? Because you use feedback extortion?

    Joe Schmoo...Poe....whatever you should be called, you are a joke and, at times, a funny one but mostly a sad, pathetic, thieving, slimy joke.

    This thread is huge but not as huge as the ego you seem to have.

    Have you gotten the picture yet that no one (aside from your lackey catfish) likes you? No one trusts you? No one wants anything to do with your/your auctions?
    Ebay has millions of suckers...keep doing what you are doing, you will still sell things...just maybe not as high of a price as you would if people could trust you.
    Obviously, the initial problem (with the excuse that catfish gave for you) wasn't about principal, it was obviously about you getting caught with your hand in the cookie jar and then trying to defend it.

    You've got an excuse for everything and everything you do has an excuse. You haven't been honest once in this thread, have you?
    Just be honest and say that you are still hanging around because you like having your ego stroked and no one will talk to you nicely so you go for what you can get.
    Maybe you have no friends and none of your family talks to you so you get revenge on others by being annoying?

    It is ironic to me that Poe is focused on our post counts here, as if they were a badge of status or achievement. They are not. I respect Russ because he is a helpful and knowledgeable person (in coins and other areas), and I especially like that he does not suffer fools. I similarly respect Cameron for the same reasons; I know he takes a lot of ribbing here from the forum regulars, but I know that the folks here back him 1000% when the trolls and posers come around.

    Poe, similar to our forum, your ebay score means next to nothing to me. It is the quality of your coins and how you represent and sell them them that does. The newbies (and masochists repeat buyers like Catfish) who buy your coins are just the tip of the iceberg. If you were a good and honest seller, your ebay score might be over 3000 (not 300). If you were a good and honest seller, additional collectors would consign their coins to you to sell on ebay (like Russ and other forum members do). Your thumbnail pictures (600dpi!), overgraded garbage, and tricky return policy scare more people away than you will ever know.

  • “It is ironic to me that Poe is focused on our post counts here, as if they were a badge of status or achievement. They are not”

    I am not as you say focused on your post counts as if they were a badge of status or achievement! On the contrary, I see them for what they are. They are just another method used by your little group to advertise their auctions and or your respective websites. They are also an indication of your little group’s efforts to pat each other on the back. In this thread alone you have kissed up to Russell so much his cheeks are most likely chapped. You take every opportunity to trash any seller that is not in your little click or more likely in competition with your little group. The trolls at least do not pretend to be other than they are! In comparison, I find their honesty refreshing! I hope that you will continue to avoid my auctions for that is the intent of my terms and conditions IE to keep dishonest people from bidding.


    Thanks again!

    I'd be cutting my losses right now if I were you and hope this thread goes away. Actually, no, because this wouldn't have happened at all, because I would have given the refund before this could happen. Actually, no again, because I never would have sold cleaned AU junk as BU to begin with!

    This thread is reminding me of a comment Russ made in a different thread in which he and Louis were beating up on Proof. Russ commented that Proof was like another poster who was a glutton for punishment- like one of those punching dolls that gets smacked and then immediately returns for more. This thread is reminding me of those punching dolls.... Thanks again!
