Could everyone IM me you ebay handles? I'll list them here so we don't bid against each other. If you wanna bid on someting I already bid on, just let me know and I'll help you get it and you can reimburse me what you were going to bid. (UNLESS I already promised it to someone else or was trying to win it for someone else!)

There's enough inflating of prices (and shipping charges!) on ebay, we don't need to ge into bidding wars and cut each others throats. You guys (and Gals!) know me, I'm fair and honest. I'll help you out when I can and NEVER screw anyone if I can keep from it! Let's help each other out.

I'll start with my Ebay ID

Ender098 (DUH!) :eek:

Did I miss anybody? Like I said, If you see me bidding on something (except a Pimp Daddy Destro or Dino Hunters) ask me If I need it....I'm willing to wheel and deal. And I'm very reasonable!

yorktownjoe. Yeah, I'm original. Do you need our passwords too? Just kidding! ;)

Thanks Frank for this thread. I rarely go to eBay anymore because of the sniping near the end of auctions. They provide a valuable forum, but the fee structure between them and PayPal really makes it cost prohibitive to sell anything at a decent, fair price. For instance a vehicle that retailed for $9.99 should not be marked up to $29.99 plus $16.95 S/H just so someone can make it worthwhile.

I already built my own policy of NOT knowingly bidding against friends if I can figure out they are forum members here. I have seen ender098 and others a few times, and wished you well in your acutions wihtout bidding. I would never want to accidentally elevate bids.

I used to sell 12" (1:6) Joes, Dragon, Ultimate Soldier on eBay and on my own website, but it was too difficult to break even with the fee structure. It was a hobby job, but I didn't want to lose money, be tied to my mouse, and constantly mailing at the post office Monday thru Saturday. Then I was notified when the Terms of service changed, I could no longer link to my own website for additional sales. That was the beginning of the end. (This was back in the late 90's.)

eBay still serves a purpose, but I'd rather swap items with people here and avoid making someone with stock options even wealthier than they already are... :rolleyes:

I'm not really bidding much on ebay lately, but I did recently lose an auction for 3 Ninja BATs and 2 Sky BATs. $$ + shipping would've been less than cost, but I was outbid at the last moment by a dollar!!!! Grrr!!! Oh well, I'll try again soon enough.

tonkatom27, I tried to start a thread like this over at Joecustoms a couple of years ago and they got all twisted about it. Hope I haven't "SNIPED" an auction from anyone.

I do more selling than buying these days, but my appetite for new stuff sort of comes in waves. I've been trying to find alternative sources to eBay.
