eBay My World: mizzelphug( 334)

I really dislike that ebay has gone from a garage sale to a Big Box Store. I came up with this name for a faux theme park design in 1996: derived from the words missile & centrifuge but my tourettes' played a factor in it's mispronunciation.

1980's G.I. Joes, cholesterol

English, Texan

The Fark Book, Crime and Punishment

Not sure what kind of scam this is but it's chock full o' spamglish. After winning an auction I received the following in the seller's email: Hi, Mizzelphug, Thank you for your purchase. However, I apologize for you, because I can not sell this item. I will donate other guy. Plese, don't pay money. Also, I can not spot to sell this item, because this selling was first time for me. I don't know how to stop this biding. I am sorry about this one. Thank you for your biding. Please have a nice day. +Follow-up: Dear mizzelphug, Hi ! Mizzelphug, I am sorry about this item again. My policy is same to donate when I start this biding, However, I don't know how to spot this biding. Also, I don't know biding price suddenly went jump to $80. I just wait final bider and I will notice that I can not sell a camcoder. In fact, My eldest brother need this camcoder. If I change my mind, I will notice to you, because you are a winer. Please have a nice day. +There's one more follow-up that wont fit.

I've been reluctantly using ebay since 1999.

I preferred Money orders but Ebay's weakstream policies now force me to accept only accept paypal or I cannot list anything. Monopoly!!

Shipping stems from the root word ship. Ships remind me of Pirates. Pirates remind me of Shipman and he is one of my good friends. The more you know.

I generally do not accept returns. If you are unsatisfied with the junk you buy, then return it to Wal-mart. They take back anything and give you in-store credit. If that fails, sell it on ebay.

You can find me on the internet pretty easily.

I only mention it because it's happened: I have your address at the end of a transaction so threatening me is really not the best course of action if your are unsatisfied. Please FULLY read descriptions or even take a glance at the photos before you bid. I list things honestly. The few negative feedbacks I have received came from illiterate morons that are running through life just reading the Cliff's Notes on everything. Like Mr. T, I pity the fools.

I understand that rising fuel costs have inflated shipping charges but some sellers just get carried away. Piston rings weigh about as much as an envelope so charging $9 -$15 shipping is ridiculous. Here's an idea. You give me your address, and I'll mail you a self-addressed stamped envelope/package and you can mail what I bought from you in said method of mailing sans the wallet-rape. Problem solved. I generally lose money on shipping. There was one time where I gained on the shipping and I ended up refunding the difference much to the buyer's confusion.
