Oooo this is the one I've been waiting for, it's just out of my price range at the moment because of a pump I'm looking at.

This sign did not sell seven days ago on eBay!
almost sold a few months ago, look at the date on the link you posted it's Feb 12th when it sold, but buyer didn't pay.
It is still for sale on eBay rite now, here's the link and look at the date. What is you point anyway? "makes one wonder?" what is that suppose to mean. it's a great sign and beautiful condition 9,9+
Get your facts straight!

Yes that is true I did get negative feedback for that sale. I decided I didn't want to let the sign go for that cheap. I waited to long to change the price before the item sold. I should have just let it go and sold it for that price and lost out but, I decided not to do so which caused me to get negative feedback. I tried to work a deal with the buyer but he wasn't willing to budge so we couldn't work it out and he gave me a negative feedback. I made a mistake and admit it, I did save myself from getting way less than the sign was worth but had to take a negative feedback in return. I should have just sold it though because it was my fault for under pricing the item to cheap. I have made multiple sales since then and received positive feedback from all of them

I am not perfect and have made mistakes but the key is you have to learn from them and be a better man in doing so. It doesn't change the fact that the sign is great sign and I am willing to sell it now and paypal covers buyer and seller for safe transactions.

"I tried to work a deal with the buyer but he wasn't willing to budge so we couldn't work it out and he gave me a negative feedback."
So.. let me get this straight...You tried to work "a deal" with the buyer to get him to pay more for the item that he had legitimately won in an auction? And now you are trying to get top dollar+ from collectors here. I dare say you have sullied your selling reputation on both counts.

I am not very concerned with eBay anymore, as a buyer. I have been burned years ago, but now eBay is 100% on the buyers side. Sellers get charged back so fast these days, you better have a tracking number. And the buyer can leave negative feedback for any small reason, and the seller cannot. Then Add the fee's eBay charges sellers, there needs to be a better alternative to eBay (sorry another rant topic)

I would be more afraid of buying something from a new seller off of a site. IMO

I got negative feedback for putting a clock back on eBay after i refunded a guy for it who bought it and wanted his money back. He said the clock wasn't working correct and I gave his money back and he seen I re-posted the clock and gave me negative feed back for it! unbelievable, he was refunded 100% and still gave me negative feedback because I posted the item again AFTER i had it fixed. He didn't know I had the clock fixed but still gave negative feedback not knowing, that's a prime example of ridiculous feedback. I told eBay and I have to contact them and they will take it off i just haven't done it yet.
