Re: oust the flipper
ye! nice Slack encouraging full disclosure is a great idea. all that's needed really. wouldn't the simplest solution be to allow flippers a presence without all the bashing. just have them wear the title. like a small logo next to their names. buyers can discuss prices on the post and make an informed purchase. golden mean

Re: oust the flipper
We need a test for flippers. I hear that they'll float in water, even if you tie a stone to their midsection.

I think they drown only if they're not guilty.

Re: oust the flipper
I'm speakeasynyc, same deal about the email address and user name. Anything I've flipped I came clean about to both sb members and the makers who made the toy.

I don't think anyone wants flippers to be accepted, they're not out to help collectors they're out to make as much money as possible

Re: oust the flipper
ebay flipper Outlook8 has been called out before in the Secret Base and Grody threads. Their latest stuff included a Gara Grody for $80+ and a Kaiju Negora for $250...that's a 625% markup.

Re: oust the flipper
How bout' KR immigrants who get mad because you don't "serve" them immediately when they wave their cash around and then they sell all their stuff in a week because "it's too hard to be a fan". Are they technically flippers? Or just dooschgebags?

Re: oust the flipper
It might actually be a good idea to have a separate thread for eBay handles. When I buy there, I often think those people may be here as well and they could save the eBay fees and I could maybe get a cheaper deal...
