Besides me sleeping at the wheel, what about the "NOT" this-or-that in the title? Palm Tungsten T5, not T, not T2, not T3
Gosh, I feel like a net cop!
Questions:
- Is this considered advertising to sell off eBay?
- Is the "NOT" other types of Palms considered keyword spamming?
- Has eBay grown so big that auctions like this is creaping up all over the site?
- Should eBay hold training classes before allowing auctions to be listed?
Answer
Newbie seller probably didn't know any better. As if...
We should all go give him a visit... ask a bunch of stupid questions...
Workplace harrassment?
Nah...
Answer
Ask them if they would take a cashier's check for more than the purchase price and if they would forward the cash to someone on your behalf.
