The idea is the same: I would not include in the auction title for a car any detail not relevant to the actual car I was selling. It's a poor practice.
Did someone in here accuse you of bidding fraud? If so, it wasn't me, and it's you and I who are talking right now. In my first post to you, I wrote,
"I hope that no one is messing with you, because that would just be stupid. I also want to assure you that, at least on my part, there was no question that any bidding oddness was coming from you. My curiosity was just whether some jerk with nothing better to do was bidding up these hammers and then refusing to pay."
I also told you to stick around if you like tools, and that I was glad you found us, so I'm not sure why you feel targeted.
As for no one here buying anything you have to sell, that's an odd comment. I myself have spent hundreds of dollars on eBay for tools and tool-related items in the past several months. The rest of the guys here are always on eBay looking for tools, automotive literature, etc. If we aren't your customers, then I'm not sure who are.
First of all you are comparing apples to oranges. Cars do have specific years of manufacture. The design of my hammer originated in the 30's. The one for sale was obviously made in the 50's by the proto name on it. I doubt the bidders on the hammer bid on it because it says 1930's in the title. But you guys have accused me of running my own bid. Which I do not do. Further I maintain a near 100 % positive feedback rating by treating my buyers right. If someone buys something from me and for whatever reason they are not satisfied, I tell them to return it for a full refund. On lower priced items I have given refunds and told the buyer to keep the item. But you guys can keep thinking I am a crook, none of you would buy what I sell anyway.
