Crazy People

People are indeed crazy.

I listed my beloved Janome embroidery machine on eBay. It is a wonderful machine. It has taken me over two months to gather all of the accessories and documentation, which I have been pretty meticulous about.

Angie took lovely pictures and I scanned all documentation, books, disks, etc.
I wrote the description as clearly and genuinely as I could. I have not seen a listing presented as thoroughly as I tried to do. lol

There are good questioners and I do like an opportunity to answer concerns. But don't you know I had my fair share of crackpots as far as I can tell. It boggles the mind, even mine.

I guess it is my turn to lose my cool and hop on thr magical ride in the Wambulance. LOL

They are crawling out of the woodwork. One just asked me (I just briefly read it) that since she will be in Mason, Ohio tomorrow, will I end the bidding early so she can give it as a Christmas gift. After all, she as made the most bids so far and she really wants it. Now who should I just give it to?

  1. HaHaHa.... people are, indeed, crazy and weird! You were very polite in all your responses. I like how you capitalized a word now and then for emphasis! Geeessh what totally goofy people
    Good luck!
    BTW, did you do a reserve?
    Love to all - I'm worn out and going to bed!

  2. I took a big chance and did not do a reserve. They turn me off when I see them.

  3. I think, that is the best ebay listing I've ever seen! There is little left to be questioned. There are some real doozies on there, and I love how you handle them. I agree with you... reserves usually break the deal for me too. Good luck on your auction!

  5. That was some listing Diane. Is it over now? I hope you are satisfied with the ending bids if it is over.

  6. Not as good as I would like, but overall I am pleased that someone will use it and love it as well as I did. Ben will ship it out tomorrow and free up a little more space. Love that part.
