Its pretty obvious that you haven't as if you think that I am the only one who derides peoples buying/selling tactics you are sorely mistaken... It seems to me that a majority of posts here are pretty much in line with everyone elses, so it seems to me that I fit in here just fine.
jpipes wrote:Yes, and just so late comers are fully aware, those "past issues" are:-Allowed a family member to bid in my own auctions. Some items he won and some he didn't. Stopped when began to realize this was a poor judgement and against ebay rules. Never done since.-Had a diagreement about shipping for a collection a buyer received 100% in full, I in haste posted an angry email about it when in fact I should have just eaten the overcost, but the buyer received what they paid for in full, safe, and was otherwise fine with the purchase. No one was ripped off but ME which is the ironic thing.-a recent poster (aia) mentioned not hearing from me for a long time on a deal for a single book. I am willing to resolve and am working on now. No other issues I am aware of.
Based on your previous lies though
Hmm, seems to be more than one issue there quite contrary to what you previously mentioned several times in this thread. I wonder how many other issues there are out there that no one else is aware of?
jpipes wrote:I'm not aware of any lies I have posted on previously. Interestingly, it is you that has lied by suggesting I was some sort of matermind behind a scheme to defraud buyers. You also lied when you said you haven't attacked me or posted anything save for 100% facts. You first post was a sarcastic made up comment. It was not only entirely NOT factual but it was also a personal attack.
Where are your facts my friend that prove contrary to what I have posted here. I have listed mounds and mounds of evidence indicating proven shilling, lying and deals that have gone bad for people who have dealt with you in the past.

jpipes wrote:I gave you a list, three items, two of which are non issues. That leaves one matter at hand. Where is the mound of evidence of my lies and wrong doing??
jpipes wrote:Maybe we could therefore talk about YOUR record on ebay, or is that stepping on holy ground... seems to me your record there is not currently 100%. Why is that I wonder?
Pipes, the best thing you could do is just admit to the mistakes and apologize.
Unless I'm mistaken, you appear to be admitting to only part of what happened.
Most everyone here is forgiving of mistakes, but not mistakes covered by deception. I shilled a few of my own auctions many years back, until it was pointed out to me that it was not only wrong, but against eBay policy. I apologized and haven't done it since.
If they are part of the massive collection being sold off privately by the family of that collector who died last year, and you're selling them as an unknown middleman, then continue on with the private sales. BTW, if anyone is interested in those minis, the guy had a stupendous collection; I will get the list for interested parties. I'm not a broker or middleman, just a collector, so you can contact them directly.

I moved to CA many years ago and two of my brothers followed suit not long ago. One is in Grad School and the other is a professional in SF as well. He created his ebay account when still at UWM and never got around to changing it.*
