I am suggesting that if sellers don't see prices
that get their
attention, some of this stuff would never be posted, and would very
likely end up recycled. Is that what you are after; to have people not
even bother to post stuff and recycle or dumpster it instead? What
affect do you think the VCF might be having on the collecting of
computers? I'm sure Sam gets leads (since he has posted some/most/all of
them here) and without the publicity that was generated by VCF, that
would not have happened.
I'm sorry, but this list should NOT be used by someone who isn't
satisfied by the price they are getting at Ebay... If you were at
a real auction and didn't like the price, what would you do, tell
everyone to hold on while you went outside and solicted more people
from off the street to bid? Please...!
Also, if the person is so interested in money that the ONLY alternative
is that they will dumpster it, I don't want to give them ANY business,
other than to raid their dumpster...
Please keep postings about ebay off this pure list... go to where it
is wanted... otherwise you are no better than any of the spammers
we fight on a regular basis...
