When I bought my first thing here on GB, I got a note from the seller saying that he saw that I was a first time buyer, so if I had any questions or anything, just be sure to ask him.
I was so offended that I have bought a couple more things from him, just because he was nice about it. [8D]
It's a conspiracy I tell ya! A CONSPIRACY!
Well... the unhappy bidder is right on this one. Ain't it just like a seller to be prejudiced in favor of bidders with more money!?

Ya turn your back for a minute on these subversives, and unbridled capitalism runs amok.
Somebody ought to have an investigation. Maybe a committee.
The Russians are coming. Everybody to keep off the streets.
Of all the emails I have gotten the latest one was the funniest...."I accidentally bid $53 instead of .53 cents, can you fix my bid?" Hilarious!!!!
Yeah....I get those emails. It is funny because it will happen on day three of a ten day auction. The bidders who are really interested in buying the gun don't show up until the last day.....and they are complaining about being outbid on day three???

I have bid on dozens of your auctions. I won two. Where do I file an official complaint about people outbidding me on the other auctions? [;)]
Anyone who sends such isn't going to be made happy no matter what your response.

How would you manage that?

Back when I was younger and less responsible, David, I may have attempted such a thing. Would not think of doing it now.

As a seller, I have had trouble out of NR bidders, but I have had just as much trouble from bidders with numerous A+ feedback entries.
Your statement implies that you would not bid if YOU had no previous transactions. That's why I asked what I asked.

Correct on the first count, David, and I agree 100% on the second.

I reckon it's a might bit tougher to do it now anyway.
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
Don- that is a serious condition to have. My grandfather died of that when he was a small boy. Be careful with that.

Ah yes. I recognize the quote from one of my old favorite movies. "Emairgensee emairgensee. Pleez to get from strits." [:D]

Same deal here only worse. Have bid on numerous Locust Fork auctions, never a single win.
GB desperately needs an option to complain about sellers. Call it the "Non-Winning Bidder Report" button.
I thought this was going to be about guitar pedals.
WAH Wah waaah.
There. Feel better?
