hello, all. this is my first time in the message center and i wanted to let you all know about bargainandhaggle.com! a wonderful new alternative or add-on to the emarketing community. it is a one on one site with the same basic structure as the regular auction sites, but by their structure the one big problem that is eliminated is sniping! because it's one on one, if you see something you want, click on and initiate a negotiation with the seller. you can see if there's others ahead of or in line behind you, and offer, negotiate, accept, or walk away any time. check this out! i just found it by chance surfing. the site can be used instead of or further enhancement to an existing auction(s).i have no affiliation with them, so you know. they just use the simple long established tradition of direct person to person commerce, hence the name of the site. i hope you'll be pleased, i sure was!

I doubt there will be any bargaining or haggling over the length of your visit here.

??? Did he say he wasn't staying long? I keep rereading it, don't see that anywhere. He just said it was his first time here...no?

But he seems to be such an earnest fellow. I'm sure he has the best of intentions. I hope he comes back soon to share other discoveries with us.

He does seem like a friendly sort, greeting us with a pleasant hello.
And, to think he just happened across this wonderful site as a result of surfing.
I do love the Internet.

And they say people aren't civil these days. You'd think if he really cared about us, though, he'd take the time to use a few capital letters. But, then again, he probably has many other folks to help before the day is through.

Hi Maui. Yes, all the more reason. I am sure George would appreciate company of his own kind.

You know, this has been more fun than we should be allowed.
You just know some "spoilsport" will come along to end it. LOL

I'm just fine, Muriel, although I'm still in a bit of a swoon after reading of my perfect day in another thread. I just may take up golf.
May I share your popcorn?

Oops - hi, Femme - just saw your post.
I've been mainly lurking here in the past few days - I've had a lot of heavy duty "pondering" to do in real life. However, I can never seem to resist responding to a spammer's post. I despise deceit.

Oh, like its been said a few times over there "birds of a feather flock together", but the word FLOCK is replaced often, heh. So Im sure the birdies will have lots of flocking and wing flapping in Georges new place. The riders who have been there for a long time are nice and comfy in their new digs, and not scattered at all. Thats the BEST news
So he didnt win anything, except an empty train.
