If that is her modem, I can see why it didn't do so well sales wise. Romy,
this is not at all meant to be insulting, so please do not take it that way
as it is in no way any sort of attack on you by any stretch of the
imagination.

The listing ended at 9:27 PM PST. That really isn't a good time IMO b/c is
limits the bidding to the West Coasters who are still up and sort of leaves
out a good portion of the bidding population if they go to bed early.

The pictures and the product seemed to get lost in all of the "mumbo jumbo"
in it.

The 5.00 handling charge per item plus actual shipping would be a BIG turn
off for me. I wouldn't have bid on it for that reason alone. IMO, if you
need to make x amount off of your item, you need to set a reserve or set
your opening bid to cover those "incidentals". I cannot imagine it would
cost 5.00 to "handle" that item.

I also don't like the...oh....what's it...third person...he is using in his
listing and disclaimer. Sort of a turn-off but that could just be me.

With only 69 views and we know that two were you (Neal) and me, that isn't
too impressive.

I pulled up his feedback page and out of 11 pages of feedback, there were
very few items that closed at a "good price", especially considering he had
to split it with someone.

Does he split his 5.00 handling charge also? That is a surefire way to
make money without the person you are selling for actually knowing. That is
something people who will also potentially be using resellers should know.
The reseller "makes his" and you are pretty much hung out to dry.

Again, looking at the ending times, he isn't being very smart about his
listing times by considering time differences and he isn't very smart about
the days a lot of his auctions are closing.
