Lately I've had horrible luck selling stuff on ebay. I sold a nitrous bottle for drag racing in December, sold it to a kid in the army, well it took him 3 weeks to pay me. I reported it as an unpaid item, well right after I did that he pays. So I ship it out to him, first time shipping APO, I messed up and shipped it parcel post instead of priority. Well he still hasn't gotten it and he put a hold on the money on paypal. Finally yesterday I found out that parcel post can take up 3-4 months to get to him! Opps. So now I have 200 dollars in limbo till who knows when.
Then just yesterday someone bought a 4 wheeler I had on there for sale. They used the buy it now so I was excited because I had it high. Well no dice! No feedback and they're all the way in Alabama (i'm in ohio) something didn't sound right. Well got an email today saying he's sending a money order with extra money that i'll need to send to england because he's shipping it to england. It's a scam. So now I'm out the 80 dollars it took to list it. Can't win.
But I have someone local that saw the quad and is coming today, they're highly interested in it so it should sell today. Thats how its been lately, just too much of a pain to sell online. I won't sell online unless the item is worth atleast 100 bucks, its just not worth it for any less.
