loosecannon	posted on August 13, 2001 07:20:49 PM Oh, this is maddening. I've been listing in ebay motors and something went screwy. The listing page wouldn't seem to "remember" my preferences. Anyway, it changed some things and before I noticed I listed two auctions with the country of origin as Antigua and Barbudo. Huh? It should automatically be United States unless I change it, right? Plus, I can't fix the error. That's not something that can be changed on revise. [ edited by loosecannon on Aug 17, 2001 07:06 AM ]
sparkz	posted on August 13, 2001 08:04:43 PM Problem solved!!! If anyone wins the auction, take the item to Antigua and mail it from there. The light at the end of the tunnel will turn out to be an oncoming train.
loosecannon	posted on August 13, 2001 08:08:05 PM Now why didn't I think of that? Probably because I haven''t had a real vacation in too long. [ edited by loosecannon on Aug 17, 2001 07:07 AM ]
misscandle	posted on August 13, 2001 08:25:14 PM Hmmm..LC, maybe Someone is telling you to take a Caribbean cruise. De islan's be callin' to ya, Mon. Great! Now I have that song "Kokomo" playing in my head.
Eventer	posted on August 13, 2001 08:28:35 PM Okay, I know Barbados, I know Bermuda. But where on God's green earth is Barbudo? Or does someone need to back away from the Marley CDs?
snowyegret	posted on August 13, 2001 08:42:15 PM Antigua/Barbuda. You can visit my family, LC!
loosecannon	posted on August 13, 2001 08:57:35 PM Well, it is Barbuda, not Barbudo. I haven't been to either place so you can understand the mistake. [ edited by loosecannon on Aug 17, 2001 07:07 AM ]
humber2	posted on August 13, 2001 09:16:58 PM There's even a reverse catch in ebaymotors country (il)logic ....... If you post your location as a foreign country and then apply Sells to US only guess what? Seller only sells to his named foreign country. Duh. There are many sales I made with ebay.com applicable to US only targetting appropriate buyers. I know it's odd but there are foreigners who seek the Just to the US only please. Point #2 in Futility eBay censors adult material from all known foreigners. Why though do we get bombed with half.wit, sorry, half.com spam when it's strictly US only...... aaaaarrrgh
capotasto	posted on August 14, 2001 08:53:57 AM I just listed several auctions and it happened to me - but it put me in ANGUILLA !! Also the shipping and payment options changed - from listing to listing, very erratic. So I guess the HS dropout programmers are up to something again .....
glassperson	posted on August 14, 2001 09:41:30 AM Yes! Yesterday when listing, I found that I came from Antigua and Barbuda! And, I also found out that I take Visa! I don't know why I double checked, maybe it was the shark story from the Caribbean? All my preferences were suddenly gone! Be careful out there!
loosecannon	posted on August 14, 2001 04:57:50 PM My wife Joy called ebay on this problem and they said sounds like we needed to empty our cache of temporary internet files. We did that and dumped cookies at the same time. Joy says it's fixed now. [ edited by loosecannon on Aug 17, 2001 07:08 AM ]
