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
