You need to read the article again. She DID NOT say that. It was Robert Piddy, the president of Third Evolution, that said that about doctors. I agree with him. It takes a lot of years of studying to become a doctor. So yes, they usually have the drive and intelligence.

Did you finish reading the thread? This person who has the drive and intelligence is known to treat other ebayers badly- leaving bad feedbacks for flaws that do not exist then turning around and selling the same item marked up 5x. It's a moot point who said what- she is probably not telling the truth anyway as it is obvious to anybody that she can't earn $120K a year by selling on ebay.

She can....just not in the way she says she does.

FYI, her user name has been changed to 2k2d--it's no longer bralicious.

Look at the feedback that she left though!

Wow This is a crazy story!

The follow up story confused me a bit though.

The article said she "earned" $120K a year. When you say "earned" that means net, not gross. Business owners would never say they earned xxx when it is actually gross. I mean the article is just flat out wrong and bad- very very irresponsible journalism.

I am just appalled at the feedback she left for others. I thought FLEAbay bots pick up patterns and they didn't pick that up?

Yes.....honest business owners that is. But she appears to be anything but. Since her story is full of holes already, it is probable that she would try to mislead her earnings as well.
