Look at what I lost to DM4U on the bay...



Glad it went to a member at least! Now he knows to sell it to me when he's ready to dump it!

i cant believe that I bidded on this and I won this .... i cant believe that I bidded on this and I won this .... i cant believe that I bidded on this and I won this .... i cant believe that I bidded on this and I won this .... i cant believe that I bidded on this and I won this .... i cant believe that I bidded on this and I won this .... i cant believe that I bidded on this and I won this .... i cant believe that I bidded on this and I won this .... i cant believe that I bidded on this and I won this .... i cant believe that I bidded on this and I won this

Ha! I can't believe it either! Check PM!

I haven't seen that model before but it's pretty sweet. James is going to need a larger place to live at this pace.

He'll have to rent the apartment next door!

i saw that but i didnt want to spill the beans in case one of us was bidding on it .

It was a race to the finish but I gotta admit I cracked up when I saw who beat me!

Thats cool James. That is a rare one for sure. I wonder if it has a "AKA"? I was going to toss a bid in but I waited to long............

How did I miss this one?!

I guess Im not searching deep enough!

Oh I have been watching this one ,,, hours after it came online ... and then James came back to the computer and refreshed the screen and realised that I had bid something & to re-read this and bid and then ... Whoooo Hoooo out bid .... and was there anybody I knew there .... here ??? ! couldnt figure it out .... tossed another bid of 226 and voila ... OOP'ssss !!!

James check your PM.

I did? I have? and I am still dwelling on
all of this!? and I am still thimking about the Aiwa?
.... not sure just yet on that one & the Sansui - No-way!
and James shall pay for this Marantz just as soon as
I finish tomorrow and then race around to all of the banks
to move fundage around to be able to pay for this Marantz
&& and the Teac and that other thing ? oh ok I forgot I paid
for that 320250448175 this morning as i re-read this ...
I 'll have enough $$ it will just be another 2 weeks
of peanutbutter and Strawberry Jam on Wheat and Cherry Koolaid
before I'll be more back in the black than I am
Presently ....

Since you brought it out here...

You gave me a list to pick from and I did. And yes I picked the Aiwa CA-W10 on that list. Gave an offer that was fair knowing the bid history of the box. Just asking you to back up what you said. Going forward, let's keep this discussion in PM's.

Sigh ... ok .... but ... it was just a list
they still need time to get aquainted ....

Since it's still out here, by your doing, and by your response above you are acknowledging the list I mentioned that you provided, what I selected, and that the offer was fair for all to see. No need to sigh. Now shall we consumate this transaction and end this?

here I am drinking my first beer this year { its a buddry } and thinking
of a nice reply to this thread
... I guess ,,, he was miffed that I won this,,, and all i desired to
know ,,, was whom was I biddng with and or against and or what number
since I dont know by the w~~~~9 means anymore, so the close's that I
can get to is the number cause that does not change that much ,
anyhow .... HAD I Known that this ,,, is or was or is a known memember
here or whom that this is or was or shall be or well anyhow he shouldnt
have been there or let me know that he was there so that I knew that
he was there so that when i was there , where am I oh yeah anyhow
uh I uh thought that I would be " Decent " and show my present list
of stuff that i have aqquired recently by way of the page window grab
function on this keyboard thats a neato thing this grab the picture
thingy on this keyboard so I posted a pic of my list of stuff junk and
and mistakes and simply stuff I bought just so that i could hear what
they sound like and see just how big that they actuall are in relation
to what i like to carry around as i do a lot of carrying around my music
from place to place as i like to listen to music as I cannot wear
headphones on the bus or in the car or truck on on the motorcycle so am
trying to find that best boombox that I can do all with carrying all
that i like to carry around with me anyway I bidded on this and soon
there after had some pm's offering to help either pay for this or to
buy somethng from me to help me pay for this or somthing like that drat
thats ended I need another one that was good brb ... 2nd cold one
{ born on date 07 april 08 }... where am i oh yeah so starting on the
21st I started getting all these pm's from him asking about this uh
Marantz thing and I hadnt paid for it yet as I had to get money from over
there and take to kash it there and then take it over there to put it
yet over there in the 3rd place then i had to wait for it to post of
which I hope it did , i think it did , hope it did , anywhay , its been
paid for now ... lets see oh yeah i thought let me show a list of what
I have gotten recently and or am waiting on presently so i did this
pictrue grab thingy as I didnt want to try to type all of those blooming
numbers ... Yes I remember now I was gonna post the Aiwa pictures
brb .. ok posted ... done ... re-reading,,, ok sounds good sofar...
so i placed this pic of my cpu on the the pm thingy and I'll put it
here as its Just a list of stuff presently ... No it NOT a list to buy
from ... but that's how he took that me putting this list out there as
i need the whatever nope.. no need for that I'll just eat poorly like
always ... I need to lose 50 lbs or so anyway, anyhow since my only
source for getting stuff in from ebay and I sometimes in the past have
paid dearly for these items by way of shipping overcost's I am presently
going to hang onto the newest this that I have gotten and the things not
on this list I'll be getting rid of as they dont suit my fancy .... right
now I have a ongoing deal that I have made over a week ago for my 3rd
ever item ever sold that I have yet over 8 or 9 days ago to get out to
this person on here I bought the shipping box on the 19th and thats as
far as I have gotten anywhay enough remabling here lemme post this
screenshot and go elsewhere ... James
oh yeah am just now reading that last opst and yes He made a fair offer
from him to me according to him... wuth him thinking, that I have this
stuff for sale .... its NOT for sale.... its simply my most recent list
of stuff that I have boughten recently that I posted in a pm and I'll
post out here just to clear up whatever this is just a list ... My List
of stuff gotten off of epay since presently thats the only place that
I have gone since I have been here stuck in this job and location and
moneyless for the past 3 years untill this coming 9th of june will be my
first full free and clear paycheck as I have gone through lots of $$$
otherwise paying all things off by cashing in one of my larger ira's
well i didnt wanna do that but i was tired of living uh just to pay off
credit cards and bills an such and being stuck here all the time ok nuff
rambling once again here's that cotten-picking list ... James
What is you Name on Ebay? I am DecentMan4you

james -- as you know -- i am NOT the member who has sent you any PM about your box list.
however - i do want to mention that while i'm no angel -- you're not either.

a few months ago -- BEFORE ebay used the code-
and thus you KNEW for sure who the other bidding members were --
well -- you know the rest....
(need details ??)

ie "oops" doesnt always cut it.

yes details unless that akai was the only one cause that's all I can remember I thinks you said it was supposed to be a $25.00 radio or somthing like that ... and also like you unlike the rest on here your name here is the same as on epay therefore its easy to know otherwise its hard to guess ... Oop's p.s. I am learning by way of Ira :-) thanks >>> James

ie "oops" doesnt always cut it.

all is well --after the obvious Akai 33 thread and bidding -- another member came thru and sold me a great one --so things can work out --
forget the details --OK?
---every member here wants certain rare boxes that come up just once or twice per year on ebay-
so NO PROBLEM trying to get it --
i was only objecting to the 'oops' scenario--

so i hope you understand .

I hope this is not going to turn into another one of those ugly threads.

I have to say - when I bought my Sony box from James - the transaction went pretty smooth, and the packing was one of the best.

However, James - maybe you should change the way you write - your posts often are pretty confusing, and this one above was almost impossible to read.

If you wanted to post the stuff you own - there's a *Collections* thread for that. If you post your stuff in another forum - it's easy to understand why people might think you're selling them.

And I can also give you a hint why you might be living from check to check - just look at all the boes you've bought!!! I'm sure you'll be way better off if you take a few weeks break

And - Happy Memorial Day to everybody

Allright. I asked him to keep it in PM and now to avoid the ensuing confusion here is the string from the PM which I saved. I don't like being led on. I don't like to be played. I started this PH-32W thread to congratulate him. He PM'd me with this: (oldskool - bold / key DM4U quote - bold & italics)

Well I have an offer... I paid you a total of $240 complete for the CP-99W. ($200 + 40 to cover shipping and paypal fees.)

You had $313.00 invested in both the 99W & 77W per your original e-mail. (I saved it.)

That leaves $113.00 + shipping for the 77W...(Since you now have an active paypal you won't get zapped if I send you money.)

Whaddaya think?

You asked me to pick from the list and I did. At the very least I'll give you 108.24 plus the 30.00 for shipping. You get the shipping you paid back this way plus what you paid for the box so you really don't lose anything money wise. I don't think I'm being unreasonable given how this came about. And yes, could you send the original woofs too? I was kidding about the tapes...unless you'd like to toss one in...

Well, truth be told, I'd really rather have the Marantz. And you acknowledge I could've had it too were it not for your "mistake" as you noted. You said you were short on funds. Since I lost that one on a "goof" and I, wanting a box, and you, needing gas (your words) I offered to buy something. I picked from the list you gave and in my heart believe I made a fair offer knowing what it cost you. You would be completely reimbursed for that purchase and shipping plus the shipping cost to me and have some help to pay for that Marantz. No, not free money. However, if you want to give me quote, "This piece of junk JVC M90" that's, quote: "too big for your taste" instead for the price of the Aiwa CA-W10 I noted to you, that's fine too. But either way you gave me a list, I picked, you will make $30.00 back on it and have money towards that Marantz or gas or food, etc. If you can't pay for the Marantz, let the buyer know that and tell them sst300 will give his last bid which was $200 for it and you'll be releived of that burden. Either way you admittedly cost me a win by "mistake" and said you could not pay. And you posted that too. Quote: "Ooops!"

So...back to this...I will give you the amount above for the Aiwa. And I'll see it in around a week or so... ....



Well, I've PM'd him since then to let him know to check his PayPal. But since I hadn't heard back I cancelled the transaction. This is BS. A big load of crap. He admitted to everything and tried to weasel out even after acknowledging elsewhere my offer was fair given what I knew about the purchase history of the radio. Am I p*ssed? You bet. All I've ever done since I've been here was help when I could. He said he was in a jam, I made an offer so he could get some cash, and this is the result.

James...I don't like to be led on...Do not screw with me...I don't play games like this...ever.

Man, I hate to see - and read - all this.
