I think everyone needs to turn around so I can give you a virtual pat on the back. This is the ONLY forum that I make time to check on a daily basis. We are quite an eclectic bunch, but that just means you get a wider viewpoint of your problem or situation. I enjoy our little “eBay Outlook” and would like for you to share in that, but if you do decide to move on, I will wish you the best of luck.

I wouldn't give up on this board, I've learned a lot here over the years. There is also a nice feature called ignore, it helps make this a nicer place because you don't see posts from the few that are not worth reading...

Doriseb...I'll admit, there are a few posters who take delight in being mean spirited who post in this forum. There are even two or three who don't even buy or sell on Ebay. They just stumbled onto the site and like to cause trouble and see their posts on the screen. These types are mostly confined to the Round table Forum, but they occasionally come over here. I can personally say that I have never seen a more helpful group than the people on the Ebay outlook forum. Selling on Ebay is about making money. We exchange ideas that furthers that goal. When a new idea is presented here, it's SOP for members to disect it and put it under the CRITICAL microscope. It may seem mean spirited to a newcomer, but it's actually a shakedown by several members with years of experience to determine the merits and pitfalls. You will learn more about Ebay in one week here at Vendio than you will in a year of blind "hard knocks" on Ebay. Stick around, we need more viewpoints and if you ever need help, there are people in this forum who know more about Ebay than 90% of the corporate employees at their San Jose office, and they will be more than happy to help.

I too would like to ask you to stay & give it another chance.
At one time I was sure bizzy was going to leave, it was quite a thread, but she fought back & stayed & I'm darned glad she did, I'm sure everyone else is too.
She adds her expertice to this board & it is appreciated.
There are so many experts here hardly any question goes unanswered & I never go anywhere else, there is no need to.
There is a great mix of people on this board
& I wouldn't change it for anything except to encourage even more people to post.
So Doris, please stay you really are wanted & needed.

I would encourage you to give it another try. I used to post alot...got tired of eBay and went away for a while. When I popped back here, it was with some reserve that I posted (many, MANY message centers have a few "bullies". So far not one person has been "mean" or rude to me. On a whole, everyone here is friendly and more than willing to help or just chat. Please come back.
