Random Rants

is it me or did some format of the forum changed? i feel confused as to where to look for certain threads…
edit: not a rant. just needed somewhere to ask..
-
@louisbosco few minor tweaks over night, yes.
-
@louisbosco Yes, sorry. We decided that we did not need the dedicated "Haraki-san" board. Some important stuff tended to be too deeply embedded. So we moved some stuff around, I hope that it is better now…We'll probably start removing some of the out of date threads too soon...

- started two auctions on eBay yesterday
- this morning I already had tons of followers and interest
- searched for it on eBay.com => couldn't find my auctions
- searched by seller => my name turned up with… no active sales
- searched on eBay.co.uk => same shit
- ended auctions, started them on eBay.com
- two hours later, I received an e-mail saying they had ended both auctions cause my items contain alcohol
- started them through eBay.be again, and struggled for a good 10 minutes to figure out how to add an option to ship to the USA, Canada,...
- they start tonight at 9am, let's hope they show the fuck up
Auction had one day to go, they now closed it cause I'm willing to ship to North-America and i's illegal to ship alcohol to the States…
I now reported my own second auction for illegal activities. Thank you and goodbye eBay. Go suck a donkey's fatty.

eBay sucks for sellers, utterly pointless.
-
It largely sucks for buyers, too. 90% of the time I look for something on eBay, I can find the same thing on Amazon for the same price or less, and I get free shipping and easy returns on Amazon.
-
yeah ebay is a real piece of shit. I kind of feel like an ass when people find my stuff through ebay and I just convince them to do the sale outside of ebay, but I just can't accept a 10% fee and waiting weeks for my money.

I sent in a re-order for Obenaufs. I got the response "we no longer ship internationally". I pointed out that they did not ship internationally, as I organised a UPS pick up from them. Made no difference. So when the current stocks are gone, they're gone. Won't make a lot of difference to you Stateside folks, but it is a damn shame for everyone else. I could buy in bulk from a US retailer like I once did, but I'm fecked if I'm going to make any effort selling shit that the parent company can't be arsed to help with.

Have a look into Huberd's, it's better in my opinion

Wesco boot care… Problem already solved.

Whilst sitting in the waiting room at a recruitment agency earlier, I flicked through a copy of The Australian. It's one of the main broadsheets down here, and part of the Murdoch stable.
I found an opinion piece on it in which the author first railed at any vaguely left-leaning politics, before claiming that global warming was part of a UN conspiracy based on inaccurate science to impose socialism on the world. OK, I'm probably paraphrasing a bit here, but that was the general gist.
The author, Maurice Newman, was a top banker, CEO, and all that, but came over like some nutter you'd find lurking on a badly designed website on one of the recesses of the net. And this was in a broadsheet paper!

Raving sociopath like all of that ilk. If I had his bankroll I could have my left of Eugene Debs socialist rants published too. Then again if I had his cash I'd think he was right.
