Adventures on E-bay

Brigadier · May 16, 2001

I'd like to share my first trip onto Ebay with the suspects:

All are NIB

Emerson SARK BTS - $100

Emerson CQC7B BT plain edge - $88

Emerson CQC7BWaved BTS - $125

Not bad. If you go to E-bay, type in a search for "Emerson knives" and you'll see a bunch of them at decent prices.

Don't forget to type

-palmer

to get rid of all those annoying Emerson, Lake, and Palmer albums. They had some song with the word knife in the title...and the ELP stuff just clutters up the screen if you don't nip it in the bud.

All I did was type in "emerson knives" for the search and that's all I got. No ELP stuff.

I just tell it to search for "emerson" only in the knives cattegory...i guess there are a couple, but i get to it by looking at some other knife auction and then clicking on the category it's in.
Thats how i got a waved cqc7, #'d 25, for $105 a couple weeks ago.
Ebay is deffinately nice to use sometimes...sometimes.

I found a pointy SARK on there, E-mailed the guy to make sure that it was as pictured, pointy, etc., never E-mailed me back, the rat turd. Then it ended with Buy It Now.

I despise E-bay Sellers who do not feel the need to answer their E-mail.

Just got screwed on eBay for the first time, myself. Sent the guy the cash, never got what I paid for. Sent emails numerous times, and he never answered 'em. It was only $20, but it's the principle. So, since I paid with a money order, I sicced the USPS Inspectors on him... haven't heard back about THAT yet, now that Ithink about it.

Chris,

Call the Inspector's Office again.

This guy I am talking about just never confirmed what he had and ignored the E-mail. Pissed me off.

Don -

I'll do that. I think I'm screwed, though, as I can't find the receipt for the M.O. But, I DO have this MF's address, so maybe an alternative can be discovered...

I just checked his feedback on the site. It's weird, because he has all these high praises, right up until my auction. I left him sh*tty feedback, and someone ELSE just did, too. Looks like he's starting to screw everyone he deals with.
