Ebay Madness - It pays to be a NAM member!

What's this guy thinking? $99 + $10 shipping for a storage tray set that I bought new from a NAM sponsor (Out Motoring) for $19.95! I guess it pays to be a member of NAM!

Why? Some people think ebay is the end-all place for bargains... So somebody might go for it.. otherwise he is only out the insertion fee...
I hate dealing with egay... but there are some unique things still to be had out there...

Speaking of ebay I was just cruising thru there tonight and saw an exhaust system. What really caught my eye was this guys list of rules to abide by before you GIVE him money. Check this out .

Please read carefully. These are my terms and conditions.

I pay Ebay too much money to be playing games. Therefore, These rules are to abided by strictly and will be enforced to the full effect of each word and intended meaning.

Very important: I only accept CONFIRMED paypal Addresses.

If you attempt to send an unconfirmed paypal address, i will report you to ebay central, and Paypal. Consequently, your account will be suspended by both parties and your life ruined. Please No UNCONFIRMED addresses.

In addition, I shall send you e-mail with a tirade of un-called for didactic lectures.



All bidders must have feedback. Any bidder with feedback lower than 70% may not bid. All bidders who have zero feedback may not bid.

If you fall into one of these categories and you bid, and end up winning the item, I will cancel your bid, leave you negative feedback, and you may not receive your money back.

There will be no international orders.

If you prefer other payment methods, I only accept cashiers check by a certified bank. There will be no personal checks, or 7-11 money orders. There will also be no FAKE or domestically fabricated checks in any fashion. If this happens, I will report you to the police and the FBI.

Lastly, All products are sold in the condition stated in the ad. All products are shown in pictures. If an item or auxillary item is not shown in the pictures, then it will not be included, EVEN if it is stated in the Auction.

ALL SALES ARE FINAL. Final. Final. Final. Final. Final.

No returns, no exchanges, no refunds, no partly, fully, kinda, sorta, pieces of trades, turn ins, switches, or any matter of the aforementioned sort. You get what you receive. If there are any damages, nicks, skins, bruises, bashes, or kinks on your package, go chastize UPS. Leave me alone.

Above all, i will leave positive feedback for anybody who purchases, and receives and also leaves me positive feedback. Anybody who leaves me negative feedback will receive negative feedback, a record in your ebay account, and serveral complaints to your paypal account.

I will only leave feedback after I have received feedback. Therefore, please be gracious and tend to the first gesture.
