Featured Antique Arizona Belt Buckle,Turquoise/Buffalo Nickles,Horse head Inside Horseshoe With Belt

I did the acct confirmation and while I was miffed about it, it was easier than I thought and did not disclose any info as I used the manual choice.
But the place is a landmine now and it seems it is in self destruct mode.

 

Oh God-are we gonna have to go back to selling items to dealers for chump-change outta the back of our van ?
I def can't afford to list on 1stDibs.

 

That specific one….$15-20 US

 

As for me, I am taking an extended break from selling online. I may sell some stuff in the fall and into early winter on etsy, but things there need to calm down.

A seller there, took time off for maternity leave. She just came back, made a sale and they are holding 75% of her money. She is a stellar seller. She closed her shop when they did that.

 

Oh my gosh but that sure brings back memories ! Of course in my decrepitude I wouldnt dream of indulging now,but oh back in the late great 80's .....!

 

Nope, I have no intention on jumping through hoops to avoid a non-compliance strike dictated by a system completely devoid of common sense.

To make things worse, all it would take is for a single person to be “offended” by your listing (for any reason… just report as offensive) and your listing instantly evaporates and you get a strike.

so in this increasingly ridiculous world where everyone is OFFENDED about something… and a company based in California, utilizing AI instead of actual humans… I was destined to end up with a permanent ban.

the same thing happened to me on Mercari, for selling a similarly OFFENSIVE item, which caused a temporary suspension… until I finally spoke to a person argued my case and had the customer service person unable to defend their decision. Well, that’s when I got banned permanently. Apparently a US WWII uniform is OFFENSIVE “hate speech related” and inconsiderate to anyone who had a family member who perished as a member of the Axis powers. No, I’m not kidding.

 

I am just wondering how they will misconstrue a cookbook and make it not ok to list.
From watching Breaking Bad, I learned that some drugs like Meth are cooked.
Oh well, I can just see it now, no cook books there.

 

Good luck with THAT!

 

I'm glad that I am old!

 

Generally the highest-priced most drooled over modern Militaria ( not talking ancient Greek,Civil War,etc),is sadly-Nazi stuff,the gaudier 'death's head' items are particularly fetishized.It is what it is.

 

Correct, and because of that, the market is saturated with fakes, much like Confederate items.

 

We just used a rolled up $20 bill. No fancy schmancy pipes or spoons.

 

I think I may be the only one here who never touched any drugs except my migraine medicine. I hear lingo that I never heard before and have to look it up to see what it means.

 

You are indeed rara avis...Good for you, pearls!

 

u had a $20......... we used a $5......needed the extra 15 for....well U no !!!!

 

Needs dictate ! I remember back then if you saw someone with a super long pinky nail thats who you'd ask about procuring some. It may have been "bad" behavior,but Lord above I had some fun !

 

Me neither. Nothing. Fortunately, I don't suffer from migraine like my Mom did, she used to take sedatives throughout her life.

But I cannot compare, I guess, due to the specifics of the society I grew up in. Very different form yours.

On top of everything, English is not my mother tongue, so this is not the only discussion I have to look up words and phrases

 

I’m so glad I didn’t get into selling on Etsy it sounds like a complete mess. I stick with eBay but they are getting so greedy.

 

KSW Etsy was a dream come true after I left ebay.
Now ebay sounds like the promised land compared to etsy.
