why I avoid ebay - part II

Well, my auctions are finished on ebay - my main items sold for about half of what I was expecting, but I had several others go out for more. Then there was the old synthesizer that no one looked at last year that sold for $152 (Wow!), so I came out about where I was hoping to overall. Since I was done, I was seriously considering taking one last potshot at Cristofe - but decided instead to share it with you folks instead....


Hey cristofe, I sure hope you read this before you construe this as harassment and report me. Cause here's the deal - my auctions are over, my goods are delivered, and my money has been collected. You've seen my feedback rating - I've been here several years longer than you, yet only have a tenth the rating you have. That's because I don't need eBay as much as you. I don't care if they cut me off, you might. After all, if they accuse me of harassment, I'll have to give them the entire transcript of our communication (including this) and they'll see that: 1) You sent unsolicited email criticizing shipping costs on an item you didn't bid on. 2) You said I had a "piss poor attitude" and told me to "have a nice life little man". Since you don't know anything about me at all (except that I've been on eBay for 10 years, and have bought and sold some music gear and at least one phone) the little man crack can only be interpreted as an insult. 3) You unjustly accused me of gouging my customers (who didn't seem to feel that way - and I never heard from eBay, so I guess they didn't either), and threatened to report me for harassment if I stood up for myself. Well guess what, I learned a long time ago that you don't back down from a whining bully. I'm not saying you're one, but I've read your feedback. So unless your next message is an apology, just keep it to yourself - or I'll do what you threatened to do. Either way, I'm done with you.

And so I am.
