Re: OT: honesty and integrity

ebay is full of people that sell garbage as well as stuff not as described. it is sometimes hard to make something out so you have to depend on the seller to describe as accurate as possible and be honest about it. that is the chance we take with ebay. buyer beware i guess.

i would say that most of us here are pretty honest in how we deal with folks and would expect the same. unfortunately there are those that aren't, including here, and that should not be. i for one don't appreciate being taken, and i think most of you feel the same.

if the person agrees to work something out, great. if not, well, then there is no place for them on here. that is what i feel and if someone wants to chime in feel free. i don't think i am out of hand for this comment.

As it pertains to e-Bay how many times has someone found a steal or gem at a great price because of the lack of description or details? But when it backfires on us we tend to get upset and vent - hypocrisy we are probably all guilty of at times. I have gotten some great stuff on e-Bay simply because it was not listed correctly, had a poor description, or lacked thorough details. On the other hand I have been burned trying or thinking I was gonna get that "steal." The point is I try to take the good with the bad. If I have a true concern about the item I ask as many questions as possible before I make the commitment to purchase it. If I am trying to get that "deal" we all look for I try not to ask any questions and take my chances or you might find the seller ending the auction and maybe even send his/her item on to an auction house depending on what it is. Just my 2 cents for what it's worth.
