Ebay BIN

John Poulos - 06 Apr 2005 23:08 GMT
Since I've had two NG'ers hit the BIN on my cars by accident, and now
that I've done it, I see how easy it is to screw up. I called ebay and
they said they were going to change it 'soon'. It seems you get less
warning on a BIN than on a bid.

  Ebay will refund Calvin's fee for my screwup without nicking me by
mutual agreement on a non paying bidder filing, but they take 10 days.

whats stoopid................ is if you hit the comma, where you meant to
hit the decimal, you get a bigger number than what you thought, also....

after 4 bid retractions 3 since I got a new computer, with a keyboard I am
still not touch familiar with , I look really carefully before hitting
anything

It's ok John, you need another 55 anyway, stop by on your way to pick it
up. <G>

This car is cursed!  The first owner died, the second guy got sick and
had to sell it, the guy I got it from had to sell it to clear a debt so
he could get a mortgage on a house and I can't even sell the fuking
thing on eBay without a glitch!!!!!
AAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <G>

I may put it on the caddy powered chassis with the '54 front clip and
let the wife drive it, she's insured for big bucks!!!!
What else could go wrong, eh? <BOSEG>
John Poulos - 07 Apr 2005 00:08 GMT
  Well, I did sign the mutual agreement with ebay so you'll get you
listing fee back, and I did e-mail your next high bidder. Maybe he'll
make a offer close to your BIN, than get hit by a truck before he writes
the check. <g>

 Well I am running out of things to do on Stan's Speedster. Here's some
of the pidley crap I've been doing.

Adjusted the steering column to get the turn signal canceling to work.
Installed new screws in the door ash trays.
Buffed out a few tiny scuffs in the restored stainless.
Put a 4th coat of Liquid Glass wax on the car.

   I've spent more time driving the car around that working on it. I
took the son out for lunch today, he even likes the car. The car is so
clean and polished, you can't touch it without leaving fingerprints, and
I wash my hands before working under the hood. Stan built the only
Studebaker I've owned in a while that does not leak a drop of anything.
(Yes it has oil <g>) Sal is making great progress on finishing Stan's
truck, pictures to follow. BTW, here's the truck as Stan found it:

GASP!!!  You spend more time driving a car than working on it?  I
thought that was the whole POINT???

Not for me, the fixing up is the point, I only need to drive to chase
parts and grab a burger.

Can anyone see the injustice in this?  I have the car that's half
disassembled and I want to drive it.  He has the driveable car and wants
to work on it.  TANJ!

(I have an easy solution to that problem however...)
