So yesterday afternoon this person "vanessa89" from Quebec buys a pair of Zilla rear hubs off me with buy-it-now. They pay instantly with paypal. But they also leave me immediate feedback. The gave NEUTRAL feedback with a comment saying only "!!!Excellent". WTF????? Don't get it!

Parts will ship Monday, but I kinda want to hold them ransom for feedback. I sent the seller a message about the feedback.

Can't fix stupid!

Another good case of karma simply working things out...

The guy is in Quebec. I'm in NW Ohio. Still no response from the buyer. They paid for USPS Priority International $41.10, but they're getting FedEx $21.54 and I'm pocketing the delta. The buyer will be getting the parts in half the time, too.

That's price for BS these days. And by "BS", I'm referring to both "Bull Sh!t" and "Being Stupid".

Merry Christmas (to me), or something like that.

For sure!

Between Craigslist and eBay...I sure have met some INTERESTING people, no doubt. No one really mean, but a high percentage of weird and stupid people. Someone who's been in complete human isolation for YEARS decides they need some cash. And THEY always seem to be selling what I'm looking for! lol

When we moved to the new-to-us house a month or so ago, we instilled the rule of "No craigslist people at the house...ever". Not just because I'm met some weirdoes, but because I've heard too many recent stories of people having garage sales or showing Craiglist parts to people...and then a day or two later, they get their garage broken into and looted. And I isolate them because I don't want any weirdoes around my wife and kids.

A few weeks ago, my friend's dad was holding a running tool sale for an old lady who's 50-yr-old mechanic son committed suicide. Sad story since she lived with him so he could support and take care of her. During the 2nd week of the sale, someone broke into the old lady's garage and took anything / everything made of copper/brass/aluminum: clipped the chords off all the power tools/lights/etc, broke old speakers open for the magnets, cut hoses off torch heads and took only torches, killed the power at the breakerbox and literally hatcheted the friggin' wiring and took whatever they could reach. Only items they actually took were a couple of old heavy, heavy drills that had heavy aluminum housings and a pair of old-school torque wrenches. And they didn't take any of the 100's of hand tools, table saw, plastic housing power tools...just took copper and aluminum. It put the old lady into a spiral of depression and she, too, tried to committ suicide. Effing makes me sick!!!!

evilbays feed back system is 100% worthless and a joke I use to laugh my ass off when in the early days people defended LIEwire by saying "he has 100% positive feed back"

Anybody who decides to buy or not based on the evilbay rating system is a fool.
