They come onto eBay and they want to sell Tastykakes like me. That's fine with me. But you think they would put some time and effort into their listings. Nope!!! Steal my pictures, paste exact descriptions from my listings, and under cut my price with the Big Headlines Cheapest On EBay. Then in a month they are gone. You have to sell lots of Tastykake just to make a few bucks. But they are paying more than me when they run to their local supermarket to fill an order. Most cases they are losing money per sale. They don't do any research just make a listing and they are off.
Yesterday even with the watermark I had one of these guys steal my main picture for the listing. He then puts it on his listing hoping to fool my regular customers. I sent him a nice message about stealing photos and my watermark is on the photo. He basically gave me a one finger salute. Called eBay had a great agent who looked at the listings and within an hour he changed his picture. So now putting a BIG copyright right through my pictures!!!!!! :BangHead:
 

GO GETTEM GUY!
 

What the heck is a Tastykake ? Anything like a little Debbie? Heard the only thing little about Debbie now is her hat

Weird, never knew that people buy food on ebay. I guess its just people who want those that don't have a local place that sells them?

Lol!
 

I never knew that people bought or sold snack food on eBay either! Is there something special about these that they can't be purchased at a local vendor?

Probably falls under new York city's food ban...

Only made at the one factory in Philadelphia. Transplants around the country and especially the west coast can't get them. If you lived in the Tri State area of Pa,NJ, DE you grew up with Tastykakes.
If you see them in Florida, Vegas or any Walmart they are shipped frozen to these areas. My customers in Florida tell me all the time what a difference straight from the factory makes. Once they are frozen they dry out.

Phila folks are loyal to their Tastykakes, Goldenberg Peanut Chews, Franks Black Cherry Soda, Scrapple, Pork Roll, and Lebanon Boloney.

When my best friend growing up comes to town from Portland, he always heads straight to WaWa for some Tastycakes!

Cigarman did you take this photo of them on the floor next to the banana at the Wawa? :laughing7: Now everyones going to want to know what a Wawa is.

The people I want to kill are when you list that rare item that only comes up about every 6 months and the next day they get inspired and list the exact same item for $5 less. They couldn't wait another 6 days for your auction to end.

I can't get anything like that here. That is special made for down south and shipped frozen to your area.
