A4000 on ebay - Doomy does it again!

Doomy:

"No, I am not pulling a "bait and switch". The auction clearly states Amiga 4000 computer. The auction does not state Amiga 4000 computer system or Amiga 4000 computer with keyboard and mouse. The auction also clearly states what is included. I have not done anything wrong. YOU need to learn how to understand what you read."

This guy is an a$$. lol.

For someone who knows so much about Haynie, you'd think he could at least spell the guys name right.

"...gas for my vehicle, eBay fees, my time to stand in the long lines at the Post Office to personally ship your package out, there will be a small handling / packaging fee added to the actual shipping cost. The handling / packaging fee varies according to the size and weight of the item, but is usually never more then $3.00 to $20.00.  "

Ohhhhkaaayyy so we've established that he can just add $20 on the end of the auction for "handling" in addition to the shipping. Including gas, and his hourly salary while standing in line.

Nice

"NOTE:  Shipping on this Amiga computer is only $40 (US and Canada only).  ROW pays actual shipping cost."

... but then ....

"A large heavy cardboard shipping box costs about $5.95. The foam costs about $7.99 per sheet (1 to 2 sheets needed to completely surround and protect the computer). The handling charge is only $5.00. So, $20 plus shipping should cover everything."

$20 handling + $40 shipping.

Stated clearly in the auction   :crazy:

Nah, you don't have to use ebay's checkout.  You can pay however you want if the seller is ok with it.  I just sent out two money orders yesterday.

There isn't much wrong technically with his auction, except for the fact that he's asking for CASH (foreign currency??? huh???) and that he's just a complete ass.
