I sell high ticket items on ebay, wish there was a way to limit flakes who bid on items that have no intention of buying them, they just like to bid up an item as if it was a game.
Flakes and deadbeats burn me to no end.
I realize things happen and if someone asks to be let out with decent sob story, I generally let it go. There may have been 2 or 3 in all the years I’ve been on Ebay.
One that did irk me was a flori-duh idiot who promised every few days a cashier’s check in the mail. After a few weeks I gave up. It was for a ragged old Blazer that I really didn’t plan to do much with. I’ve decided to keep it and use as a tractor.
An AOL address filter would be nice too. Just about anyone I’ve had a problem with 9 out of 10 times had AOL. There have only been a handful of minor problems ever.
