Frosted Flakes...they're not grrrrrreat

I put some pony stuff for sale. Within minutes I get one "Claim". I open PMs and see that she and another person I have sold to in the past have both responded. Since ol' claimee was first, I give her dibs. BIG mistake. 

 She gives me info, I send the invoice. First, "Do you have anything else?" then "Can I get a picture of______?" and here I am almost a day later - unpaid. A little pissed. Yes. Another fuckin pony flake. Bitch, I was selling THOSE two things. If you want them...fucking PAY FOR THEM, then worry about what else Khajit has for wares. 

 Then I check my ebay. I have a pony on fixed price and see an offer. I check the offer expecting stupidity and I am never disappointed. A $55 offer for a pony I have listed at $100. What on God's green earth would make you think I will give it away for half price? No thank you.

Doll People Part 2

 My Child doll people are wild, man. I get a question about a doll I am selling. The question :

Does she have a wobbly ? Are her limbs tight or loose? Are there rips and/or tears on her body?


Now "wobbly" set me off. I think back to that Reiki massage nut My Child doll buyer from a couple of years ago that could not be bothered to go to the PO to return the fucking doll because she "ran a business etc etc"

My spidey senses tell me that this is another nutcase. Also, line 2 of my description is "limbs are tight".  I have several pictures of the doll with no clothing and there is a magnify feature, plus I do not say in the description that there are tears or holes. 

I look at her feedback. Yikes. Look at left for others - extra Yikes. 

Charley is playing Jurassic Park, so he's occupied and so I fall down the proverbial rabbit hole...This bitch writes a damned novel on each and every feedback. I block immediately. 

Last night I get this message:
Could you be so kind as to explain why you’re not allowing me to bid on your doll?

I want to answer "It's because you look nuts and like you're a huge pain in the arse" but...Customer Service Persona engage!



I am like "Your feedback and feedback left for others".

This morning I am bombarded with 3...count 'em, 3 messages from this tree nut.

1. I’m sorry that my honesty offends you. I’ve already figured it out that there are two types of collectors of these my child dolls.
1) those that collect, refurbish & sell for a high price
2) those who buy to refurbish & then sell for children’s play.
I fall under type #2.
This is a hobby for me which I find b 

2. This is a hobby which I find extremely therapeutic. I started this nine months ago when I refurbished my niece’s doll that was handed down to her daughter. Since I’ve identified two different types of collectors of these dolls it’s obvious I’ve stepped on some toes without realizing others might be offended. That wasn’t my intent. Now that I am aware of this I will continue refurbishing dolls for children’s play while others refurbish for a different purpose.


3. Therefore, all is fine. We just need to keep in mind there are two types of collectors out there And treat each other with kindness.

Oh. Thank God you gave me your blessing to block you, honey. I would have been sitting and worrying about it all fuckin' day. 

This bitch feels the need to write a novel with every interaction. Given that I am a person of surprisingly little words in real life, I find this exhausting and annoying. 

"My honesty offends you" No, bitch. What offends me is your lack of shits given about ruining someone else's livelihood with your idiotic feedback. Guess what? When you ask a stupid question, the seller you are asking can now see your feedback and feedback left for others. This feedback tells a story about who you are as a buyer. You, ma'am are a fucking headache, and I sidestepped that BS because I still can. I rue the day ebay starts hiding that feedback feature. Following screenshots are her feedback and the next few are her "left for others". Giant steaming BS choo choo train. No fuckin' thank you...

Cheaplestiltskin 2 Electric Boogaloo

 The Dingus that messaged me 5 days ago asking about 6 ponies surfaced again...this is the message I got:

Hi, if these ponies are still available, would you be able to create a bundle for me for $50? My zip code is -------.


I was like sorry dude, I answered you several days ago. I sold the ponies elsewhere. 

You snooze, you lose. The Canadian that bought them was no BS, she agreed upon a lot, paid immediately. No dicking around, no haggling. I got a little more than I would have selling to this clown and without the dang ebay fees and threat of shit feedback.

Cheaplestiltskin

Here is a fairy tale from Ponyland... 

I am selling off some excess ponyage this week. This is because I have a very tiny pony room and need the space for my loose ponies and some G1 playsets that I want to bring down from the attic. I had a taker from Aussieland who bought two rather largish lots from me and a couple of randos buying several more.

My Ma is over visiting and I see that I have a message: 

"Would you consider combining the ponies below for $50? Thanks"

A list of 6 ponies is given. Mind you, they are already asking for a $10 discount by offering only $50 for 6 ponies. I have to cut my visit short with my Ma because I gotta get into the closet, get the ponies, weigh them and respond to the asker.

I send them back a shipping amount ballpark with zipcodes added to show cost for whatever area they may live in and they vanish into thin air, never to be heard from again...I'd say, "The End" but I want to elaborate once more that pony people are cheap fucking flakes.

                                                        The End

Skeezy Pony PPL

 


This morning I go to one of my groups. In said group is a person "congratulating" someone for having won a lot for $30ish bucks with a very rare Spain pony in it. 

I cringed internally for the buyer. I know if I pulled off the coup of the decade, I'd be livid if some bitch posted a picture of the lot and told people where it was bought from, which this chick did.

Now, most likely one of the vultures from that group is searching relentlessly for the sold lot so they can swoop in and offer more just to be a dick. *sigh* Pony People, man.

Merry Fuckin' Christmas

 I list a ceramic tree. Person makes a lowballish offer on it. I accept because she lives one state over and the shipping will be less prohibitive.

Day 1...crickets.

Day 2...crickets.

Day 3...crickets.

I cancel the auction "Why was my order cancelled?"

Jeez, bitch I dunno...maybe because you fuckin' LEFT ME HANGING for three days after getting the tree for half price without an explanation as to why? 

I find it funny that she could not be bothered to contact me for 3 days but when I cancel her - FRAMPTON COMES ALIVE! 

I tell her why I cancelled.

"I had every intention of paying. It's only been 3 days!"

Uhhh do you think Amazon is going to wait 3 days for payment? I'd like to call my credit card company after they've charged me a late fee and go "It's only been 3 days!" Fucking A. These people. This asshole has less than 30 feedback. Two feedback left for her by sellers were very telling:

Ended up not getting but cancelled quickly ! Awesome buyer!

You need to pay before it can be shipping. Thanks

Cluster

 It will be peaceful for weeks and then we have an influx of stupid.

Today an old clock ended. So far, crickets from the buyer. 

I get a message about a "cancellation" and I am like "Here we go". It's not the clock, but a bidder cancelled their bids on a doll outfit. I am sure more stupid is coming...

Calvin k-LIE-n

 I have this dumb sweater I am obsessed with. I bought the first version of it at a thrift store for $1.00. It's a nice wool Calvin Klei...
