I keep them under control with a simple rule: I never put anything on the credit card that's more than what I have in my normal bank account. So in that case I'm using money I actually have, it's just paid for in an indirect way.


Getting back on topic, I just got this flaming email. I had contacted the seller to negotiate some sort of compromise.

The terms of sale are clearly and repeatedly
noted in the auction listing.

Your attempt to bid on this auction is in
violation of these terms and a violation of
eBay policy.

We take a dim view of persons who have no regard
for terms of sale. If you'd like to preserve your 100%
feedback file, do not attempt to interfere with our
auctions again.

And, any attempt to use an alternate account to
bid on the auction after being blocked is also a
violation of eBay policy, making your eBay account
subject to suspension.

Do not send us any more emails.
Ouch! Well it's a shame to let the items go, but I can't say I'd enjoy dealing with this guy. The auction's up to $36 US anyway...

lol This is the what he sent to me when i first asked him to ship to canada and accept paypal from me lol
