      Nothing like a public slap fight between enemy makers to dismay and disillusion.

        @Seul:

        I swear packages coming from Chippendale Rd. FTX USA are doomed from the start…

        Package shows up as delivered Feb 28, on 2.17 pm. I was home then. Now I've been calling back and forth with my personal detective "Kelly", who has traced it back to another sector in my town...

        Fingers crossed...  😃

        Actually, I just pretend to ship you stuff.  The Belgian Post and I have an elaborate plan in place to try and drive you mad.

        Come to think of it, we may be too late for that.

            I hate "Buy It Now".
            I used to love eBay.  It was a great source for random and hard to find stuff, and with the auction format, you could feel fairly certain that you were getting a reasonable price, whether you were buying or selling.  However, over the years, eBay has steadily destroyed that system.  Adding Buy It Now, readjusting the listing charges so that you can list something practically forever with a stupidly high opening bid or only BIN price with no added costs, regardless of how long it sits there, piling on fees to the point that only high volume sellers are profitable, shackling everyone to PayPal, ("The world's most loved way to pay and get paid" my ass) and the general refusal to address continuing issues of fraud have all made me go to eBay as only a last resort.  They've turned it into an Amazon Marketplace clone, albeit with higher shipping charges and worse customer service.

                I don't mind buy it now options if they would make it mandatory to bid as well

                          Exactly. I like to call such hubris "masturbatory design."

                            This I can use to describe many things from now on.  Thanks MC.

                              My car broke down with severe motor damage out of the blue and I can't afford a replacement engine. Yet I need to drive 100 km per day to get to work. Feels like a punch in the guts.

                                            I hope something works out max. What a terrible situation. As an ignorant American, I'd assumed there were bountiful public transportation options to get from anywhere to anywhere else in Europe.
