Question.... Would posting a link to your own eBay auction go here, or in the auction thread? Just unsure because it's my own. Thanks guys!

If you are giving a discounted price to members then post here, otherwise I would just post in the auction thread.

Gone!

Thanks Simon. I'm not sure if anyone here would be interested or not, but I've decided not to finish the set of these red leather library books. Too many irons in the fire. I'd take $300 shipped in the US from a forum member, international shipping would have to be negotiated, as the weight of these things approaches 70 pounds.... I'm also open to trades.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/161868139574...84.m1555.l2649

31 of the 37 are here, only missing Insomnia, The Dark Half, Nightmares and Dreamscapes, Eyes of the Dragon, On Writing and From a Buick 8

Damn, I'm pretty sure someone here posted about completing a set of these. I forget the thread, perhaps "King Books/Items Wanted"? Shoot, I wish my memory were better!!! LOL Good Luck!!!

This is the stuff that really drives me crazy.
In the last few weeks I've had members contact me regarding transactions/purchases that have been slow in being delivered or paid for.
The seller (member) has more than once used the excuse that the item was retuned due to an address problem; thus returned and on the next attempt finally arrives, but weeks later than it should be.
The member owes thousands to someone here.

If all of the transactions were via Ebay, the buyer would have been protected.
I can't offer that protection here.
One person can screw it up for everyone.
Sad.

I am considering closing this thread until the issues are cleared up, but it punishes all for the action of one.

When this happened to me, I was seriously annoyed by the month-long wait. I considered adding negative feedback, but was willing to forget and move on. Now, hearing that the same excuse was used in another purchase, that really bothers me. Inexcusable!

I wouldn't shut down the thread based on one person's shoddy actions, but would suggest temporarily banning them from selling anything for awhile. Granted, that member is also selling through other methods right now, so probably won't even feel bothered by the ban. But it at least sends a message.

I am of the opinion that you should not be solicited to intervene in the commerce that takes place on this site.....you spend enough time updating and maintaining the site....you don't need to spend time being a cop.

Caveat emptor folks.

[webstar1000]

RF should have been left out.... Agreed. However the people that have had issue should let the other members know who it is to save them the same aggregation and chance of getting ripped off. I would do that for the other members. I would hope for the same

[Kingfan24]

I agree with you Kris

I have to admit I agree with this statement. RF already provides the forum for these transactions. It should be up to the members to police themselves. RF retains the right to step in only if he wishes to do so. He does plenty on our behalf as it is.

[Jimimck]

Yeah i think the comments above provide a solution that doesn't impact on RF (or hopefully minimises the impact on his time). Let the members here police ouselves. Buyers should be naming and shaming bad sellers, and we have a thread for that no?

I would want to know if someone had a history of delayed sales/excuses etc, then i can make my own decison if I deal with them. I don't expect this site to offer protection for failed purchases. If I want that, I use eBay. I want the opportunity to buy from people I know and trust. Building trust is the key here, and bad sales to other people has a direct impact on that....

In my opinion, that's what the negative feedback is for. Unless the seller has a valid reason for not shipping quickly, a negative should be posted. I've never had a problem, though.

I was going to add negative feedback. Instead, that member publicly mentioned a personal sob story, so I decided to just leave it as is. Now I call BS on his so-called personal issues. If he has them, then shame on him for making me think otherwise.

Your damn right Brian! 100% agree with you.

[Merlin1958]

i hate it when you guys refer to a situation like the one stated above and then don't identify the person. Seems to me that if you are miffed enough to mention it in the first place then why not fully disclose the participants and get it out in the open. Then the offending member can come here and offer his/her explanations and resolve the matter one way or the other. By not disclosing who you are talking about gets everyone looking sideways at one another, no? Not to mention that maybe us other members may appreciate the knowledge for consideration in any pending/future transactions.
