Hi John:
We appreciate the heads up. I've looked at and bid on your items many
times in the past. But could you do us all a favor by not SPAMMING the eBay
search engine by not listing everything you list with the description
M151/M715/M35/M35A2/HUMMER/M38/M37/MB/M718 or some variation thereof?
We were just discussing your (foxholejoe) items the other night on
another board and this method you use was not exactly receiving kind reviews
from the members. It was indicated by a couple of folks that eBay frowns on
( i.e. would ban a seller who did it ) this. Anyone know if this is true?
Tends to piss folks off to search for M35A2 or M151 parts and get
returns on Bayonets or other things that don't have anything to do with an
M35 or M151 other than being surplus. Kinda like the infamous universal
military spark plugs that are advertised to fit everything by a certain
vendor ;-> .... Some folks would call it good business practice because it
results in sales to the less knowledgeable. A sale is a sale.
Customers tend to call it unscrupulous or deceptive advertising or just
plain getting Fucxxx over by a vendor who knows better. A happy customer is
a repeat customer. A PO'd one complains long and loud to everyone and
anyone.
Just constructive criticism.... take it for what it's worth.
Ronzo
