Title: DONT Watch List this item !
Post by: RedVise on June 28, 2012, 02:13:50 PM
Wow, I never thought a pi$$y attitude would help you sell on the bay, but this guy does. 
Very hard to not watchlist this ...

I ask him what he was basing the 100 year age on .

Not trying to start an ebay bash, as there are plenty of them out there.

This fellow will stroke out soon with an attitude like that!

I don't think I will bid on any of his old tools.

He does offer free shipping... Not sure those will fit in a flat rate box.  I wonder if he will ship to Ca for free...

I not only watchlisted it, but also sent him a question. "Which item is 100 years old, and what basis do you use to determine age?"

Well, he does now show Papaw's question:

Q: Which item is 100 years old? And on what basis have you determined the age?

A: The age of the rest of the dated stuff in the barn, and the word of the guy I bought them from.


That will win over any doubters...

Well I just had to add this to my watch list also.  He'll be lucky to get a bid high enough to cover the shipping cost.  How do guys like this get a TRS badge?

Hah! I watch-listed this as well,  not only because it said not to, but because I have plenty of broken "vises", rusty wrenches, and no-handle sledges taking up room in the shed.....If these sell well, I'm listing all my 100-year old crap, also!!!!!

I've literally gotten back some of my families 60 year old CRAP (cow manure from the old barn floor for the garden).
