Great savings on Ebay today!

So we just received our new Dell laptop and are falling in love with it. Unfortunately, our old Mac computer uses a cat 5 network cable that is routed behind our huge desk!

Today we set out to get a new cat 5 cable so that we could just unplug the cat 5 cable from the Mac and plug the new on into the Dell and the modem and use it that way. Come to find out that the newest thing is a cat 6 cable, big whoop!, and they cost almost $20.00 for a 7 ft. cable!!! Crazy I thought.

So we all said at the same time, let's try Ebay! Sure enough we easily found a 7 ft. cat 6 cable made by the same company. The best part is that we were able to purchase two 7 ft. cat 6 cables for less than $10.00 including shipping and handling! Now our old Mac can have it's very own cat 6 cable and won't get jealous of our new Dell notebook ha ha.

Anyway, it just goes to show that searching ebay can save you time and money as well as put a big smile on your face!

Well I was right about the ebayer not paying after all

So my worst fears were confirmed this morning when I received an email from the highest bidder regarding my leather jacket. If you remember from a few days ago, I was worried that they were not going to pay me because they had been an ebay member since April 24th, 2007 and still had a feedback score of zero.

When I opened my emails this morning I had one in there from this person, which was a big surprise because quite honestly I didn't think I would ever hear from them anyway. I was told that Unfortunately due to unexpected circumstances I cannot afford the jacket any longer". What a joke!

I guess all I can hope for now is that the highest bidder under this person still wants the jacket and not bought another one in the meantime. I sent this person a second chance offer which I can explain what that is in another post soon enough.

So in closing I think it's only fair to post the username of this person who flaked out on me. The ebay username "amadakruger", the name is a link so you can visit their profile and see if they have had any listing or bought anything from anyone. I truly thin that this ebay username is a fake name somone set up for the specifi purppose of doing things like this. I will also tell you how and why people do this in a future post.

Kinda nervous about this

I know I shouldn't make judgment calls about people who have a feedback score of 0, but it's almost something that you have to do. Don't get me wrong, I have had my share of people pay on time who had a zero for their feedback score in the past, however it seems lately that hasn't been the case.

What I'm talking about is this leather jacket I listed on ebay that just sold yesterday for a lot of money. The high bidder had a zero feedback score, I sent them an invoice yesterday followed up by an email about 5 minutes ago asking how they would like to pay for the item. I did the email thing just to see if I would get back a response...nothing yet!

Sure, maybe they went out of town for the weekend, maybe they are busy with family, who knows? I just get concerned now when someone bids on any of my items and they have a zero feedback score. Sad but true.

Toys ‘R’ Us has stopped selling lead-tainted baby bibs!

A few days ago we learned that here were certain vinyl baby bibs sold at Toys “R” Us stores that appeared to be contaminated with lead according to laboratory tests. This event making these inexpensive bibs another example of a poor China import product that may be a health hazard to our children.

The vinyl bibs in question feature illustrations of baseball bats and soccer balls and Disney's Winnie the Pooh characters, were sold for less than $5 each under store brand labels, including "Especially for Baby" and "Koala Baby".

Recent tests financed by the Center for Environmental Health of Oakland, California, found lead as high as three times the level allowed in paint in several styles of the bibs purchased from both the Toys “R” Us and Babies “R” Us stores in California.

Now, we hear that Toys “R” Us has halted the sale of vinyl baby bibs at its stores nationwide yesterday, August 17th, and has offered their customers refunds on perhaps more than a million bibs after continued tests confirmed that at least some of the Chinese-made items are contaminated with lead.

This is scary folks! Again, the contaminated bibs were marketed under the "Koala Baby", "Especially for Baby" and Disney Baby labels and manufactured for the company by Hamco Baby Products.

Please keep an eye out when placing bids for items such as these on ebay. I know ebay has made the issue known to us, it's buyers and sellers, but it never hurts to keep things like this going and being posted so the few that do not know will find out. Who knows what else they will find as more testing is performed, but this is just another lesson to always keep an eye out especially when it comes to our kids.

Heads up on the toy recall

Recently in the news you have heard about some major product recalls in several industries regarding products that are imported from China.

Now comes two massive recalls regarding the major toy company Mattel. The first recall covered about a million and a half of their Fisher Price toys with concerns about lead paint.

In Addition, we were made aware of the fact that there are over 250,000 "Sarge" cars from the "Cars" movie with lead paint concerns and roughly nine million toys with tiny magnets that can be very dangerous for smaller kids. Overall there are over 18 million magnetic toys and about 450,000 die cast toy cars that are being recalled. This is very sad news!

Just a heads up on the huge Mattel toy recall. Here is a link to the list of toys recalled by Mattel. This link is a list that includes the Mattel recalls that were announced since August 4, 1998.

For general recall information on any consumer product, and for earlier Mattel recalls, please visit www.recalls.gov.

I wanted you all to be aware of this when buying items on ebay. Maybe this will turn into something good, like having more products made here in the USA!

Strange...

A lot of my listings have been and were bid on by people with zero feedback. Normally I would think "great, here's someone that's not gonna pay for the item", because to be honest that is what happens a lot. However, the last 4 items I've sold to people with zero feedback have paid via PayPal right away!

Goes to show you can't always go by the usual even if it happens 99% of the time.

The most listings ever!

Since I started selling items on Ebay over a few years ago I have always wanted to see how many manually entered listings I could do. I used to think it would be somewhere between 25-30 items for sale, but since ebay changed their listing form to a much easier and user friendly form I've gone crazy!

My new record of items for sale at one time is now 108 :) Insane if you ask me, but I have found that I could list a few certain items over and over again without anyone bidding on the let alone buying them, but as soon as I reached a listing total of over 50 items for sale, things just start to get bid on like crazy.

I think that anyone justs starting on ebay might think that the cost to sell of things is not worth it, but take my advice, when you want to make some money on ebay list as much as possible and reap the rewards.

I will go into some great tips on selling on ebay in future posts.

My daughter is so happy!

My daughter was so happy this afternoon when the mail came! We had bid on this adorable Siameese kitten from Littlest Pet Shop on Ebay a week ago and won.

She is in love with these Littlest Pet Shop toy animals! She can't seem to have enough of them around her all the time.

The funny thing is, we've started to watch Animal Rescue on the Animal Planet Channel and she has to have all of her Littlest Pet Shop friends right there with her watching to!

It's sooo cute to see them all wrapped up in the bed spread watching TV. I think she might just grow up to be a veterinan!

Going through all my stuff for Ebay!

Man what a job! I've been going through so much of my old stuff that has been in boxes for years. I must say it has been quite refreshing to know that I will soon have more room in my house and garage :)

I plan on listing almost everything on Ebay! That alone will be a huge job, I know.

I really love Ebay for buying and selling all sorts of great items. Everything from hard to find special things to everyday normal items. Ebay has been very good to me in the simple fact that almost every person who has had the winning bid, pays on time!

I have had a few bad experience's with two people recently who did not pay for the items they won. What a nightmare that is to deal with. I'll post about that situation in the next few posts I make about my Ebay experience's...

So in closing, be sure to checkout what I have listed for sale on Ebay, you never know, I might have something you can't live without :)
