    Yeah, the cat confuses me too. More explanation needed, this is fascinating btw but I'm sure Brian would rather this was done elsewhere.....

    A point to be made is that while you guys pile on there ARE folks here wondering why it has to be this way. They have their varied reasons for being here, I'm sure. None of them will speak up because they don't want the same treatment. Take a second and think about if that's the environment you want with an online forum. That's how Twitter is, and it's considered by many to be pretty toxic. As I said before, it's not my place to tell you how to act, I just know how I don't want to be treated. I'm not a martyr or anything, I simply don't mind if people dislike me because of some made up reason they decided to create before getting to know me. That's them taking poison hoping I get sick, like not forgiving folks.

    Please share your ebay ID and i'll gladly make it official. That way you don't have to PM me asking me to hook you up with deals like in the past.

    You're right, I'm done (and this isn't to have last word). This went on longer than it should have and I want to personally apologize to CD and Brian for this thread being where it played out.

    Please simply submit your reply as follows:

    My ebay ID is [enter id here] as I do not want to ever be allowed to buy from an ebay store because of a forum where that person had a disagreement with someone.

    Well now you've given away your evil plan. I probably won't share my ebay ID with you, certainly not now.

    I just buy on there anyway.

    WOW! I’m just catching up on everything with this Brooks guy. I’ve already seen him get the boot on Facebook groups, and it looks like he’s losing customers here too. Didn’t take him long at all to make enemies. Good riddance!

    To summarize my understanding of what I’ve read both here and on FB:

    This seller:

    1. Lists items for sale for much higher than current market prices. Serious collectors find this a ridiculous practice.

    2. Blocks a massive list of potential eBay buyers and cannot articulate the specific reason for at least one particular potential buyer. Serious collectors find this insulting.

    3. Argues with other serious collectors, offending many of them while also taking offense himself. Others not directly involved in #1 and #2 appear to pile on. This all creates drama for everyone.

    Here are my two questions:

    Has this seller actually ripped anyone off? By either:
    1. not delivering goods purchased,
    2. delivered goods not as described, or
    3. mailed collectibles in sub-par packaging?

    Or are we avoiding the seller because we just don’t like him?

    I only avoid him and commenting to his post because he was a jerk the only time I commented to one of his post. I cracked a joke about selling kids as a way to avoid parenting cost and he was extremely rude. It was an obvious joke (post is in the bookcase thread). I don't need the drama, so I avoid him.

    I have no comment about anyone else's experiences, and no desire to join in the broader discussion/argument, but I will contribute my experiences:

    1. I had previously purchased items off of eBay from this seller prior to the seller joining TDT. He has thousands of books in his eBay store and from what I have seen of it there are items that are (a) good bargains, (b) fair market prices, and (c) higher than market prices. I generally tend to purchase from groups (a) and (b) and I believe but don't fully recall if I've ever submitted an offer for an item in the (c) group. All items were well packaged and shipped in a timely manner and I had no issues.

    2. I have since purchased items directly from this seller after connecting with him on this site and was very happy with my purchases. For one purchase, he sold the item to me for less than I offered because he thought it was a fairer price. Again, the items were well packaged and shipped in a timely manner and I had no issues.
