Up at 4 am trying to get caught up on printing labels for shipments tomorrow and just grabbed an awesome buy on ebay.

Wrong category, wrong name, wrong everything.

Snatched it at 0.99. Ended not too long ago.

Proving not to start and end an auction at 4 am.

Will slap it back on with the correct maker, category and when I terapeaked it last one sold for 351.00.

Does not happen a lot but lucky to have been going down a category I seldom look at and went OMG, is this for real.

Is Terapeak really worth getting Sandy? I'm considering the use of it.

[Sandy D]

I use it all the time. Every single day.

Since I have it on my phone it comes in very handy on the go.

I use it to watch competition closely and find the products they sell over and over.

I am Grandpa told me when I was little taking me around the flea markets, yard sales etc to watch those who are successful and repeat what they do, only do it better.

In regards to this post, I found a free site that lets you search Ebay for misspellings and such. It's called Goofbay. Y'all might know about it but if not it's pretty cool.

Found an Ipod Nano today for 9.99 at Goodwill. Minor cosmetic issues, works great.

Nice Columbia ski jacket for 4.99. Like brand new.

Picked up a vintage Panasonic electronic device from the 80's. Paid $6 and will sell for $100+.

We are over it as long as you stay on topic and post your finds.

This is not an opinion thread and I dont remember you posting anything you have found that would help the other members.

If you did find something and made 1000 then why have you not helped a fellow poster and give them an idea of what it was?

The topic is your finds from one of the places in the headline. Or comment on someones elses finds. Nothing else.

Now on to the goodies.

Actually, yeah I have posted finds, I'm sorry you don't find them useful. My initial post was not at all mean spirited and you were the first one to find it that way. It didn't get two "thanks" because people were like "Yeah, finding items are stupid!". So obviously, you read into something way incorrectly and are determined to be mad at me.

Fine, it's cool. I love how when you go on for paragraph after paragraph about nothing at all it's all good but when I have a one liner that says "No it's all cool we all agree, believe me" I suddenly get a "OMG Lets get back on topic!".

Hopefully next time I type something that isn't aimed at you you'll just ignore it. Obviously mine wasn't off topic, a couple posts were made questioning why people throw out things. I was showing the other side...

But I'm happy that it looks like your posts have gotten shorter which means that you are less angry.

I hope we can get along from now on. If you are mad at all, feel free to pm me. I would have pm'd this to you but since you posted this last post I figure I'd respond since I thought my last two short posts were like an ending and a "let's get along" type of thing but again you seem determined to try and make it seem like we were arguing when only you were.

So yeah, in the meantime, feel free to pm and you can feel free to stop chastising me for posting something. Thanks.

Cooler time for the thread.

Great ideas.


Implement them or do not implement them.

Nit-picking is passé
