I was a 100% seller with feedback... I bought some collectible cherished teddies for my wife... the person just threw them in a box and shipped...half were destroyed. I contacted pay pal... the Seller gave me an extremely unfavorable rating I raised hell with Pay pal and ebay.... the final solution to keep my rating intact was to withdraw my complaint, shut my mouth and they would withdraw the unfavorable rating....incredible....I don't sell or buy on ebay anymore.

Back on topic, I have been buying and selling on eBay since June of 2001. I currently have a 100% feedback rating. However, I am by no means a "Power Seller."
I've bought and sold coins, tokens, collectible tins and many other things. I have never sold anything over $100 because of the fees involved. I've bought a couple of high-end items but nothing over $300. I have only had one problem with a seller a few years back but that was due to lack of communication on their part.
Because of the fees and the increased hassles of tracking, shipping etc. I don't do the eBay thing much anymore.
I really don't even want to get started in on Paypal....sheesh. ::)

When there is no use of periods, commas, spaces between sentences, and paragraphs, it does make it extremely hard to read, you can lose the meaning of what they are trying to say if your not careful, and for me I have a tendency to skip or not read all of that post. With that said I do think the "get educated" comment was uncalled for, and disrespectrul..

If I mistype, please overlook, I had shoulder surgery this morning, it is very hard to type with just my left hand, and on pain killers.

Good luck and good hunting.

Collusion does exist. USPS money orders. Cashed at any P.O. no questions asked. And you(seller) save big time!
