Why are they bidding this hosta up on eBay?
Comments (21)I just Googled Frosted Mouse Ears, and see that one place has Royal Mouse Ears, Frosted Mouse Ears, and another new one, Holy Mouse Ears. Gorgeous pictures. They also have Green Mouse Ears, which a number of other places also have. Looks like they are the supreme "mouse finders." Nature's Reign is the name of the site, very sorry to say they apparently aren't ready for sale yet. ~Bunnycat...See MoreE-bay freight question
Comments (8)For what it's worth, we bought most of our appliances off the internet WITH THE EXCEPTION OF the refrigerator. Our GC, who did not care where we got anything, warned against it, saying that the fewer times and the shortest distance a refrigerator is moved, the better it will operate and the longer its life will be. We got a SubZero and I by golly want that thing to last a l-o-n-g time. We bought it locally. He cautions people not to even move a fridge from house to house. Too easy to mess it up, I guess....See MoreeBay question (and my grandfather's pic on eBay)
Comments (15)If you add it to your "watch" list, you will be able to see the time left for the listing. It really is small in size, isn't it?. Why didn't I think of that?? (Because I have the KT, and I'm spoiled.) Yes, it's awfully small, and faded, I'm sure. It would be nice to have, but for not very much money. I have some similar memorabilia of his. I have no idea what "lg" means. Certainly not "large." LOL I found it because I have a standing search request on eBay for any items that contain the word Luckstone, and also one for "Alice Campbell," my grandmother (his wife) and also an opera singer. A different Alice Campbell was a novelist from around the time time period, so unfortunately I get notifications whenever her books are listed on eBay. But no big deal. I bought another picture of my grandfather on eBay--not his most flattering, but an interesting photo. I also found a listing that claimed to be selling a photo of Harry Luckstone, but it wasn't him. I wrote to the seller, who ignored me. ;-)...See More? About eBay
Comments (19)It was a mistake, yes, but probably one ebay will not accept -- Let's put it this way, if the listings each went up $50 would she keep them listed? If yes, then it was not a mistake that she should cancel. An legitimate mistake would be cancelled either way - the amount the listing would sell for would not really matter. But if she is only cancelling them because she did not make enough to cover shipping (and forgot to calculate that in) I highly doubt that is an excusable mistake. I'd seriously check with ebay rules or ask on the boards over there. I'm not trying to be mean -- but I'm not going to tell you want you want to hear either. I seriously think she could get in trouble. And, sorry to be so blunt, but "forgetting" you'll have to pay shipping charges is not a normal thing for people when first selling on ebay. That's about the first thing you look into when beginning to sell. If she's that uneducated about ebay; she should not be selling on ebay until she really understands what she is doing. It's just not fair to the buyers. Again, sorry it's not what you want to hear... but I really think she's wrong to cancel them. Again, ask on the ebay boards or even ask the ebay help center and see what they say about her mistake. She's not being fair to the buyers. I had to eat money because I didn't know how to package stuff well and a package got damaged in the rain -- everyone has to accept and learn by their mistakes....See MoreHU-450852005
