i would imagine that most of you boo birds didn't even LOOK at the neighborhood! just trashed it cuz that's all you know how to do with ebay. as stated by me & others, if you despise ebay so much, why don't you just take your ball & go home?

Talking about sales. Ive been on ebay about 10 years. Years ago ebay offered more views than an average afternoon garage sale. TODAY, I could get more views of the same item within 4 hours at a weekend garage sale. TRUE but SAD. I'm finding more and more ebay is a losing proposition for selling my unwanted items. I'd rather enjoy a brisk weekend garage sale. What a shame ebay has grown up and grown OLD.

Scooter-31 I feel your pain. I can offer an "Buy it Now" item for $3 with $2 shipping and have 2 watchers. 12 Flashlight bulbs delivered and they are watched. People spend $5 on a beer in a second. But its a stressful thought out decision to buy a needed item and part with a slim $5 bill. And after my efforts to find, list, label and pack the item offer paypal, and pay a listing fee, photo fee, final value fee, paypal flat rate fee plus percentage cost, shipping cost and my time and effort, I make a dollar. I've got thousands of those bulbs and Im fed up and ready to toss them in the garbage for free! Ohhh yes we need a neighborhood, NOT I've got my own right here and a garbage can that folks can find lots of free items where I get the satisfaction of knowing I'm helping some poor soul who has less than I. God bless all and good night ebay!
