MYSTERY BOX BONUS $$ SCAMS - How to Spot a FAKE BIDDER!The eBay philosophy is people are basically good, but Mystery Auctions have been bringing out a number of bidders who are not what they appear to be. Recently, I've had three Mystery boxes on which have risen to astronomical heights only to find out the bidders had no intention of paying and the bid resting at a near normal location. This makes seller's of Mystery Box Auctions frustrated and weary from trying to catch these fake bidders at their game. My listings had bonus money in them which was payable upon successful completion of the auction which means the winning bidder must pay. Clearly stated - no pay, no bonus. Normal and fair practice. Several bidders tried to run the bidding up and make money on the bonus trying to pass the buck to the high bidder. It was like a hot potato nobody wanted but they wanted to watch the other guy win and get something for doing nothing. These people were put on a list and they went right into my Blocked Bidders and also to a report filed with eBay. I've learned several things along the way which I hope will be helpful to you in our endeavor to run clean and fair Mystery Auctions. PRE-APPROVED BIDDER'S LIST Protection is key so one option is to have a Pre-Approved Bidders list which is found under Site Map in the middle column. You can add bidders to your list and make sure they really want to bid on your item before they run it up for no reason. Click on the link and follow the instructions to add your item and your approved bidders to the list. Many people don't understand the Pre-Approved Bidder's list so you'll want to explain this in your lis... eBay's Privacy PolicyeBay's Privacy Policy We all know how Ebay use's information on what we do here, you can see that on your My Ebay page.

This works both ways for sellers and buyers. eBay will notify you of policy changes and give you a chance to put your two bits in about them. eBay has a truste license and will always answer your concerns.

Extra income, the possibility of unlimited income, and the freedom from your daily job are always great incentives. Before you quit your job or invest your money, make sure you know what you are doing. You don't need to be an expert in the business you choose. You simply need to have a well thought out plan for what you will do and how you will do it. Sounds easy doesn't it. I know from experience how hard that can actually be. I, and many others, have been in such a hurry to get started that we jump into a business before thoroughly thinking it through. This can be a very costly mistake to make in both time and money. There are lots of products, services, and books out there that promise quick money if you follow their plan. Being in business for yourself is not easy. There are no shortcuts to riches, no one-size-fits-all solutions, and no one can do it for you. If you are willing to invest the time and hardwork, this can be one of the most rewarding (not just in money) ventures of your life. Business Opportunity (BIZ OPP) Tips to avoid scamming.
IRS Plan on Taxing on Ebay Users!The IRS has made no secret of the fact that it wants Internet auction companies like eBay to provide more information about high-volume sellers to the government in order to help close the "tax gap" between what Americans owe and what they pay. But now the official proposals are finally on the table, and Ars has had a look at the documents. Here's what you can expect if the changes go through. Changes are contained in the President's 2008 budget proposal. Instead of targeting only Internet auction sites, the current proposal actually expands the definition of a "broker" to include middlemen that don't actually function as the customer's agent in a transaction?like eBay, for instance. Brokers currently need to file a form with the IRS that gives the name, address, and gross proceeds of each customer they work for; under the new proposal, many more companies would need to do the reporting. The Treasury Department wants the change because, as the budget request notes, "compliance increases significantly for amounts that a third party reports to the IRS." But this isn't a change that will apply to all eBay sellers; in fact, most will be exempt from the new reporting requirements. Internet auction sites will only be required to report customer revenue information if the customer does more than 100 separate transactions in a fiscal year and generates more than $5,000 in gross proceeds. In a report from the Information Reporting Program Advisory Committee(part of the IRS), the new proposal is supported by a 2005 study showing that over 700,000 Americans have a primary or secondary source of income through eBay. Essentially, these people are running small businesses, but IRS research on small business tax returns shows that "non-farm sole proprietors under-report 57 percent of business income on Schedule C"... Is the future of the mouse pad bleak?Side note ? if you want to harmlessly torture a coworker who uses an optical mouse, here is what you do. When he/she has stepped away from their desk for a moment, simply turn their mouse upside down and cover the red optic light with a sticky side of a Post-It-Note. This ?blinds? the optic capabilities of the mouse and will send your office mate into fits of frustration as they move the mouse, but the pointer on the screen doesn?t budge. Ahhhhh good times! I first became aware of the optical mouse dilemma when I opened my virtual eBay store. Many of my eBay friends had commented on how much they loved my product. However, after a while, I noticed a good number of these same friends had not made one single purchase. This struck me as odd. Some serious proactive digging ensued and I discovered that many of those who had not made a purchase were relatively new optical mice users. Most gleefully remarked how they had felt f... Mobile Computing In Your Vehicle - It Can Be Done!I am going to tell you here about the Mobile Computing setup that I use On The Road in my Semi, my experiences with it, and a bit about how it has evolved over time. It is my hope that, if you are needing to implement a full 'mobile office' in your business, that my experiences may help you in getting it going. As I said, this setup is in my Semi - a 1999 Freightliner. I am an Owner-Operator, running long-haul freight all over the U.S., usually living in the truck for a month at a time. I have been packing Laptops on the road ever since Windows 95 was the state of the art - and now have a widescreen model with Windows XP (soon to be upgraded to Vista). My system has progressed over the years, from a mere 'hobbyist' way to check e-mail via an available phone jack somewhere, once or twice a week - to now, where I have a cellular wireless card and subscribe to a nationwide wi-fi network, and the computer is an indispensable part of my business. In the latest advance, I now get paid by scanning my paperwork direct from the truck, as soon as a load is delivered - instead of having to hunt for an overnight airpack dropbox, and hope the papers don't get lost in transit. Admittedly, a Semi has more space available to stretch out and work than some other types of vehicles may have - and that is where you will need to tailor your gear to your own operation and needs. What I am using, though, could be just as easily used in a small delivery truck, a pickup truck, or a car (if you don't routinely haul a full load of passengers). The 'heart' of any mobile system, of course, is the Laptop computer. There are literally tens of thousands of variations available, in all kinds of price ranges. Whatever your needs are, or what you think they are, they will ALWAYS grow AFTER you buy... Headlight cleaning, restoration & polishing 101Does your headlight cleaner require tech support? There are numerous products on the market that claim to clean your lens using a process of buffing, sanding, grinding, polishing and multiple steps. Some times hours worth of work. Think of the time you will waste repeating the job and in most cases you will have to buy another cleaning kit. Headlight cleaning does not last for ever. Oxidation will build back up again over time. There is no one time fix. Initially they give the headlight a nice gloss Benefits of reserve price listing with buy it nowReserve price listing is where you allow your listing to auction but you set a minimum price that you will sell the item at. Reserve price amount is not shown to the bidders. Once the reserve is met you are then obligated to sell the item to the high bidder. The Benefits of the reserve price listing is: 1. You are able to be sure that if your item sells it is at least a certain price. 2. Most important use for a reserve auction is to use in conjunction with the buy it now. When using a reserve amount in an auction it protects the buy it now feature! Until the reserve amount is met or past the buy it now will still be displayed. Example: you auction an item and list it starting at 0.99. Your buy it now price is $99.00 A bidder bids .99 and the buy it now immediately disappears. Now it is a pure auction with no opportunities for someone to buy it now! If you set a reserve price the buy it now feature will continue until that reserve price is met. This enables potential bidder to own the item regardless of the previous bids! The challenges of using reserve pricing: 1.Many bidders may not like reserve auctions and not bid at all. 2. Reserve price is the same cost to list as if you listed the item to start at that price. Solutions to challenges: 1. A buy it now feature attached to a reserve auction allows the transaction to be transparent and if the buy it now is fair and the item is desirable it will sell and the bids will help get the item attention until it sells. 2. eBay could change the Buy it now option to continue without having a reserve at predetermined percentages of the buy it now price. For example if the item ... Legitimate Work at Home Job: Paid Surveys & TrialsI earn money doing consumer surveys and product trials on a "work

Description of Vehicle: Make: Model: Year: Color:  ... PURCHASING A NEW COMMERCIAL VEHICLEMany Consumers are under the misconception that they must own a large Company or Business in order to purchase a Commercial vehicle at a dealership. Most car dealerships welcome all Commercial customers, small and large. Companies or Businesses that are owned and operated by Sole-proprietorships and LLC's, can also get good deals on Commercial vehicles. Buying a specialized Commerical vehicle can save Small Business owners time and money, letting you focus on running your business, rather than having your Business run you. We recently attended a small County Flea Market, and were amazed at the types of questions we recieved. Most people were under the assumption that only large Corporations were allowed to buy Commercial vehicles. Also, many Female Business owners relayed that they felt intimidated by the concept of going into a local car dealership and purchasing a Commercial vehicle. We would like to help dispel some of these myths and misconceptions that are out there concerning this area of vehicle sales. 1.) Usually the only special license needed for a Commercial vehicle is one that applies to the weight class of the vehicle being purchased. ie: a CDL, or CDL-C. Other Endorsements may be needed for a heavier truck, or as pertains to Hazmat Commodities being transported.. 2.) DOT numbering is generally only required for vehicles over 10,001 #. 3.) Financing is generally the same for Commercial vehicle Sales. The process is pretty much the same as what Consumers go through for regular vehicle purchases. Financing companies might differ, but the process is generally the same. 4.) Insurance levels and types may differ from regular vehicles. This usually depends on the weight of the vehicle and what type of service is being preformed, or commodity being transported. Your regular or Bu... shipping a motorcycle or atv small enginei have shipped many motors of all sizes and shapes, i think it is best to help the customer out and myself by keeping the shipping to a minimum. start by draining any fluids from the motor, this way when the shipper tips it over you wont be charged for a cleanup or haz-mat spill (you can be fined in excess of 50,000 dollars for causing a haz-mat situation in a federal building and the post office counts as a federal institution). after draining, fid any pokey or sharp parts of enhine that may tear packaging and cover them with a little piece of card board and tape it down. now buy a cheap roll of saran wrap at any dollar store and wrap the motor. go nutz use all of it if you want. doing this will ensure any other oil wont leak out . engines up to 70 lbs. i have found that the cheapes and easiest way to ship a small motor is using a chap rubbermaid style tote or bin. place engine inside pack with dense material like old rags foam or tight packed paper, then duct tape the lid closed wrapping several times, and your ready to ship. engines over 70 lbs. get a piece of plywood cut to roughly 8 inches wider than the motor, attatch three 2x4's to bottom of plywood spaced evenly one along each edge and in the middle. then drill 4 holes on each corner, set saran wrapped motor on top and secure with ratchet straps utilizing the drilled holes for mounts. i have not found a frieght shipper that didnt accept this style of open crating. |
