This isn't weird or bad. I think it is cute how the shark is close to biting the wallet, and I think using a cute toy to hold open the wallet is a great idea.

The critter in the photo looks like a Sperm Whale, doesn't it? Look at the teeth.

Too bad the toy isn't missing one of its legs - it would look just like Captain Ahab. :D


One of my favorite opening paragraphs in all of literature:

"... Whenever I find myself growing grim about the
mouth; whenever it is a damp, drizzly November in my soul; whenever I find
myself involuntarily pausing before coffin warehouses, and bringing up the
rear of every funeral I meet; and especially whenever my hypos get such an
upper hand of me, that it requires a strong moral principle to prevent me
from deliberately stepping into the street, and methodically knocking
people's hats off--then, I account it high time to get to sea as soon as I can."

I know that I complain about this regularly, but I'm getting so tired of getting messages on BIN items that only state: "What's the lowest you'll go?"

This is getting ridiculous already.

Am I the only lucky one getting these one-liners or are others noticing this constantly as well?

I get them too. Usually I'll ask them to just make an offer which often results in never hearing from them again.

That actually sounds like a good idea. I'm going to try it next time. Thanks. :smile1:

Before we lost power last night, I tried to get this last post in. Apparently, I did indeed post on the wrong thread. The mods are welcome to move it if they chose. :smile1:

It happens but regardless I feel your pain about low ball offers. I have posted my own complaint too in the peeve thread.
