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

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

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.

buyers can disscuss prices between themselves and make an informed purchase.
this would offer way more selection and maybe better dialogue and
friendly behaviour would lead to better prices and new friends who maybe enjoy toys as much
as we all do.

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

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.

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? :lol:

Or just dooschgebags? :lol:

Post 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...

wouldn't that make them "dumpasses"? :lol:

and to oli's point... yes, on the rare occasion i sell stuff over there, it's usually priced a bit higher than i would list it here,
simply to cover seller's fees on top of everything else. i'm not even interested in the random person asking me to trade or
"give them a break" over there, either, where as here i feel a bit more flexible.
