qix_maniac Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 As I comb ebay I come across some idiot powersellers :-) They buy atari 8-bit lots and break it up and sell individual pieces. By the time they pay the listing fees, 9% ebay fees, and the paypal fees, assuming it sells and they don't have to relist they make a few coins...I saw a guy buy a lot a few weeks ago for about 60 US $ and then sell cartridges so dirt cheap he probably will lose money or break even in the end...seems like a lot of work for nothing! If he was buying an espial in the lot and made a couple of hundred great...I think it's a waste of cycles and really annoying! what do you think??? I also see powersellers buy and sell stuff from each other so they buy lots; then can't sell and package into lots only to be bought out by another powerseller! I think half the 8-bit stuff on ebay is recycled junk boucing around from collector to powerseller to collector back to powerseller ...ok ok ok, I admit, I'm getting frustrated cause I can't find an espial, matterhorn, bristles, or boulderdash cartridge anythere so I'm just venting as I study ebay!!!
