This IS the first auction I have EVER seen with that pre approved bidder notice. I think this pretty much confirms my belief that a pre approved bidder list holds no bars on bidders. Like someone is REALLY going to send him THAT kind of money? No way! NPB. And a BIG fvf.
This brings to mind my please for a location of the current bidders. Will NOT ship! NO shipping! Must pick up! They BID anyway, Cause they read nothing.
Someone suggested me using the pre approved bidder thing like this auction for my Will NOT ship auctions. I see from THIS auction it means Nothing. He will NEVER collect. And,,,,,,I am sure he is selling it because his phone bill must be higher than a kite and growing higher by the minute. hahahaha.
Every Kook in the Country must be calling his number.
There has to be another angle to him broadcasting that number?
Bidders NEED to !!!!!!. BEFORE Buying. Thank you.
NPB's have No rights,, to post. After the fact lies. But E bay currently lets them. They need to be blocked! Once the NPB is completed.
Naru's . Soooo, LONG! after 3,,,, DIFFERENT, sellers file NPB's. Negs do Nothing to NARU them. filing DOES.
A current bidders Geographical location i.e. STATE/ZIP/CITY needs to be known California cool Shades.
E bays feedback system is Insanely . A cooling period of F/B like 20 days of filing for fees back. Soon many give up. Works for E bay. They keep 1000's of dollars.

She was a hooker. Her numbers on every bathroom wall. You'll NEVER be lonely with that number, 24 hours a day, ring, ring, ring.

For those of you who don't know the One Hit Wonder Lyrics (I remember them well) Here they are...
867-5309
Tommy Tutone Song Lyrics
Hey...
Jenny, Jenny who can I turn to
You give me something I can hold on to
I know you'll think I'm like the others before
Who saw your name and number on the wall
Jenny I've got your number
I need to make you mine
Jenny don't change your number
8 6 7-5 3 0 9 (8 6 7-5 3 0 9)
8 6 7-5 3 0 9 (8 6 7-5 3 0 9)
Jenny, Jenny you're the girl for me
You don't know me but you make me so happy
I tried to call you before
But I lost my nerve
I tried my imagination
But I was disturbed
Jenny I've got your number
I need to make you mine
Jenny don't change your number
8 6 7-5 3 0 9 (8 6 7-5 3 0 9)
8 6 7-5 3 0 9 (8 6 7-5 3 0 9)
I got it (I got it), I got it
I got your number on the wall
I got it (I got it), I got it
For a good time call
Jenny don't change your number
I need to make you mine
Jenny I've got your number
8 6 7-5 3 0 9 (8 6 7-5 3 0 9)
8 6 7-5 3 0 9 (8 6 7-5 3 0 9)
Hey...
Jenny don't change your number
I need to make you mine
Jenny I call your number
8 6 7-5 3 0 9 (8 6 7-5 3 0 9)
8 6 7-5 3 0 9 (8 6 7-5 3 0 9)
Jenny, Jenny who can I turn to
For the price of a dime
I can always turn to you
8 6 7-5 3 0 9 (8 6 7-5 3 0 9)
8 6 7-5 3 0 9 (8 6 7-5 3 0 9)

Thanks cta, I've had that song in my head ever since I saw the auction and it was just fading until I saw your post! lol Now I'll be humming it the rest of the day!
Whats funny is that I just saw Milky Way candy bar commercial with a guy driving in a convertible eating a Milky Way and singing along with 8675309/Jenny on the radio. I haven't heard that song in years and now all of a sudden, its everywhere!

Jack - you are thinking of a personal phone number but considering the fact that even Cingulair is currently using that song and phone number in an ad for switching services it has a lot of popularity and a lot of recognitional value which would be beneficial to a business.

If it's really "common" sense, why do so few people actually have it?

Hey, what happened to that #? Obviously it must have violated some of eBay's rules, because it's been pulled.
Personally, I would never want this number. Anyone who remembers that song should also remember that the poor people who did have that number got so many crank calls asking for Jenny, that they had to change their phone numbers.

I read in the newspaper that Verizon who owns the phone number said people cant sell them because they dont own them.
