Gotta love that guy....

I know how he feels, there's a strong smell of stupid enveloping the
world, and common sense isn't very common any more.

But, I wonder if he has an assistant named Pancho Sanza?

Isn't that the truth. I just "sold" an item on ebay that is heavy cast iron.
The guy freaked when he got the invoice. $10 for the part and almost $60 for
the shipping. The weight was mentioned in the auction description, plus
there was one of the "estimate shipping" boxes there for them to input their
zip code. Jeesh!

I found that odd myself. Are reloading components that expensive in
Australia these days?

i sell something, and the shipping calculator is included in auction
...............

bidder e mails me and asks, "How much is shipping?"

no zip code, no nothing.

indredible.

Gee, I wonder if I sold a chunk of "brass round", ie brass solid bar
stock, if I'd have to say, in big letters, there is no primer, no
propellant and no projectile in this brass! How about turning some
brass rod to a point on one end?

Sheesh, with all the totally fruitcake auctions that are apparently
people selling books on how to buy government surplus, people clearly
offering prescription medications for sale, and a whole bunch of other
stuff, they have to go hassle this guy about pieces of brass!

ROFLMAO!

Got to love/hate Ebay and their weirdness on firearms and such.

5 whole cases? Ive got 50 rounds of this caliber ammo in the truck,
along with the rifle. Shrug
Ive probably got 20 or more emptys of all types, floating around under
the seats, in the heater vents, console, etc

Which is one reason my truck NEVER goes to Mexico.

It's better to be a red person in a blue state
than a blue person in a red state. As a red
person, if your blue neighbors turn into a mob
at least you have a gun to protect yourself.
As a blue person, your only hope is to appease
the red mob with herbal tea and marinated tofu.

People just like to look at the pretty pictures. They don't know how to
read or follow instructions. Remember it's not their fault that you
didn't take the responsibility to guide them by the hand. The people of
this world are loosing their common sense and self responsibility.

Bernd

world are loosing their common sense and self responsibility.

They are also losing their ability to spell and know the meanings of words.


And losing the ability to steer a vehicle, let alone drive one.

It appears that most people are on auto-pilot nowadays. Watch
ten people in line at the supermarket/restaurant/deli/McD who use
their credit card. Note how few of them even -look- at the receipt.
People are too rushed to pay attention. No wonder their health is
so bad; they eat at McD's and never stop to smell the roses.
