The $1.12 Hill

I "sell" a MIB Barbie. Said Barbie was $10.00 + $9.50 flat shipping. Tax brought the total on the invoice to $21.12. 2 days after auction's end:


"Will you take a flat $20.00?"


Uhhhhh. No. I explain that ebay is charging for tax because IT'S THE LAW and tell them no, and send the invoice. I am already taking a nearly $3.00 hit on shipping for a $10.00 item, meaning that after fees and the shipping hit - I will get $5.50 for the fucking doll. Hell no, I'm not paying your tax for you, lady. 

$1.12 was the hill she died on - I cancelled for non-payment the second I was able. 


Last night, I list several dolls and outfits. An hour later, the first question right out of the gate:

Is her legs are in excellent condition

 I grit my teeth because in said listing the first thing I mention is that the legs are not chewed, split or green and that the knees hold a pose. I don't know how much clearer I could have been. *headdesk*


Then this morning: 

Hi would you be interested in making this a buy it now? I would like to buy it I do nit like bidding and waiting. Thank you!

Bitch. If I wanted to list it as a Buy it Now and get fuckin ripped off, then I would have! If you don't like "bidding and waiting" then find one of the many other of this same exact doll that are for sale as a Buy It Now already, but then you'd have to pay triple shipping and pay a real ballpark price, right? LOL

Swirly City

 I have a doll for sale. Here is the description:

"Face is very slightly darker than the torso. Lips are very pale white-pink. Original nail polish, hair is in original set. No arm swing.  No splits, no green. Comes with blue swimsuit"


Questions from potential buyers, aka people who don't bother to read or look at pictures:

Does she have green ear on either ear?


Hi,
Any green on the doll's right ear? You only show the left side of her face.
Any nose nips, or neck splits?
Thanks!

 
OMG. I never said right in the description that the doll had no green or splits, did I? 

There is literally less than one paragraph to read, and these fuckers cannot be bothered. How am I supposed to know that they will even read my reply if it exceeds a couple of lines? lol

I replied to the second dumbass that as stated in the description, there are no splits and no green on the doll and that I only took a picture of the side of the doll's head to show the ponytail. I did however answer the nose nip question because that question was sort of justified, though you can see clearly in the pictures that there is not one. *headdesk*
