Wow. There's so much to say here, I don't even know where to start.

But for those who hate PayPal, this ought to give hope. These sellers don't accept credit cards OR PayPal, yet they're at the yellow shooting star level (and have an "award" from eBay!)

I see they do accept "Con-sealed" cash though!

Hmmm...thought that could not be mentioned in an auction any more or is their fancy way of wording it their get-around the system trick.

I just love the fact that they have the link to one of my favorite anti-paypal websites in their listing. It is the www.paypalwarning.com site. Got to love their ball's for including that link considering how trigger happy ebay is with shooting down auctions for the slightest infraction.

Since they have been posted to VD, the countdown has begun. Anyone want to wager how long before they go NRU?

That anti-paypal link has a low cost merchant account that some might be interested in...The fees look low.

I went to the item through fLufF's link. On the item description page, when I tried to access the link directly below the "Trading Assistant" link, I received the following AOL notice ...


AOL Security
Suspected Phishing Scam
AOL has received complaints from our members suggesting that this site may be improperly collecting AOL member data. In order to protect our members, AOL is presently preventing AOL members from accessing this site.

I am not sure what that link might be, as it is x'd out by AOL. I thought everyone might be interested.

You better take that with a grain of salt. AOHell thinks 95% of all legite e-mails and websites are spam.

All the more reason not to use AOL.

Yikes!!! What brought about that post?

As I re look at my post, I note that I did not use the word "spam" I posted "phishing." Apparently, the AOL warning was that information was "phished" at this site.

The AOl Safety and Security Center, is but one of three systems which watch over my computer. In fact, it has saved my butt a few times lately.

I am only passing on information to those who might care. Sometimes it just does not pay, to try to be nice.

Koz - before you get to upset about Stone's comment - consider the source.

What's the matter fenix? Don't like the fact that you are always wrong?


Phishing, Spam. All the same to AOHell.

Stone - your record for cluelessness is so long running that I sometimes marvel that you are even able to get your password correct.
