What did I do? I just saw an auction that looked like it was just for boxes. Being a newbie and being somewhat interested, I decided to bring my thoughts here, MW, where I knew I'd find some well thoughout opinions about such auctions. The ones I did not think were valuable, well, I skipped over. The first response was from fearyaks, whom I know is a trusted MW member. If anything, all I saw here was people's opinions on the subject, and if certain people let other's opinions rule their life's, well then it would be much easier for me to get a low-vis at dirt-road price. All I would have to do is bad-mouth all the sellers, so that everybody else drops their bids, and I would come out, triumphantly, with a dirt-cheap toy. Now, would that truly happen? NO. People aren't stupid, not everybody, anyways. Bidders might listen to opinions, but in the end it is them who make the choices, put down their hard earned money, not the opinionated ones. So, who's at fault here? Nobody, I think. I saw something that I thought was weird, and I asked. If I can't ask here, then where? If someone's feelings got hurt, then I'm sorry, but if that was the thought process of every seller, then it would be a real pain to do business. Not everyone is going to like everything, that's impossible. And those who want to bitch, well, let them. He who has never complained, cast the first stone. Now it's between the seller and buyer. MY two cents? He won the bid, he deserves the toys. If they care to listen, good, if not I can't force them, can I?
Sorry about the little rant.
