Only $18.99 + $14.95 shipping = $33.94 for a cordless saw without battery or charger and without warranty from a person with a reputation of defaulting on nearly 20% of transactions. Buy it. You deserve it! |

And if one looks closely at the ad, the reason it's only $19.99 is because - SURVEY SAYS - it's only a carcass. No battery! What a great ebayer, folks. FoggyTown |

This is getting even better. Some anal aperture with handle "getting_even_with_spammers" (wonder who that might be?) bought it for $19.99 - allegedly. This is almost good enough to sell tickets to! FoggyTown |

I've purchased many things on Ebay and never got stung. If the seller has a I've bought about 14 things and only had trouble with 1. I bought a CD copy of Open Office 1.1, an " MS Word" emulation that is free, but I didn't have the time to do a download. I went with this guy because he promised quick shipping. It took about 2 1/2 weeks, and arrived long after I downloaded it. I complained and he said if I didn't give him good feedback he'd give me bad feedback even though I had paid immediately. He pointed out that it would lower my percertage of good far more than his, since he sold hundreds or thousands of things. What difference does it make if a buyer has gotten good or bad feedback? They have to sell to the highest bidder, and they don't have to ship until I pay. They are bound by the ebay rules for the first part and have no risk for the second part, and I'm sure they know it. But I still wanted to keep my percentage good at 100%, so I decided to settle for a copy of his other CD, which had lots of freeware and shareware on it, that he said was useful for debugging. Probably was but it was poorly organized, had no index pretty much, and almost all had to be installed before it could be used. He had lots of excuses. Claimed the wild fires in California had interfered, (but also said he shipped only a day or 2 later because of that. Both his cd's came with a printed note, the same one, that something had gone wrong so the shipping was delayed. I'm sure everyone gets that. good feedback score and has been on quite awhile, it's usually safe to buy. I also pay by credit card just in case. Like everything else "Caveat Emptor" AIUI, the founder of ebay thought everyone would be honest, but by now they have been forced to hire 100's of lawyers to handle complaints (and that only relates to the problems aboven above the level that non-lawyers can handle.) |

Now that's dumb, but it did work out. Praise be. Cheri |

There are far too many crooks selling garbage and by the time you pay the shipping you may as well go to a store. Avoid Ebay. Problem solved...... |

You can't spam, extort feedback, & you didn't send the previous buyer for the saw, his item. You didn't get the money you wanted first time around, so you put it up there for me to buy.
