i bought some ridiculous crap the other day and i got an e-mail requesting my satisfaction from the auctioneer. here was my response:
i drink too much and as a result i sometimes buy overpriced items from ebay. there should be a breathalizer device for computers not allowing a person to use his/her credit card when intoxicated. the items did however show up exactly as told in pristine condition.
here was his:
Thank you for your business. I understand sometime drink too much will cost you alot. But sorry, ebay business is like take. Sorry for the high price. Again Thank you for your business.
Thank you.
he was still glad to recieve my money, and so would i if i were him.
fuckin' ebay

It reminds me of a drunk e-mail I sent to H&R Block last year when my "electronic rapid refund" that I did using their online service was taking a long time. I told them: "What the fuck is going on with my 'rapid refund'? I keep getting an error message stating, 'there is a problem with your return.' For christ's sake, my refund is around 800 dolalrs and I don't make shit, shouldn't the fucking government be worried about the trillions of dollars being kept tax free in offshore accounts and stop their nazi like tactics of fine comb analysis of people who actually work and pay taxes?"
They replied:
Thank you for using H & R Block. Here at H & R Block we are comitted to customer satisfaction and we will review your problem and correct it asap"

I shit you not on this story. We actually bought, sight unseen and I recommended highly against it, a 2002 20' Isuzu box truck off of e-bay for our business. Turned out to be a good truck, but we truly threw caution to the wind on that one.
why is my moral compass always pointed east? that's the direction of the nearest liquor store.

I've sold two cars on eBay, and it worked out well. I took the time to include copious photographs, and my description of the vehicles were highly-detailed. I'd dare say that I highlighted the deficiencies rather than the positive aspects.
This formula seems to work with special interest car buyers on the internet. They're more realistic in that they know the sort of vehicle they're getting into, and know what to look for and ask about. Informed buyers like an informative seller.
Both parties came through just as we discussed, were more than pleased when they came to pick up the vehicles, and drove them home (more than 1000 miles, each). I made out fine in that I was able to attract the particular kind of buyer for what I was selling, whereas conventional avenues would have yielded poorer results.
Oh yeah, and I probably bought beer with some of the proceeds.
