He's At It Again

More restored (some disclosed) and or scan manipulated Comic-Keys auctions.

Now that Ebay has fixed the feature that allowed people to see the high bidders on private auctions it's safe for him to start ripping people off again. Way to go Ebay.

I Just Don't Get It

Why would anyone pay $49 + $1.00 s&h and $1.30 for a $50 gift card? Don't get me wrong, I'm happy about it, but I still don't understand.

This Is Cool

I'm not a baseball fan, much less a baseball card collector, but I think any collector can appreciate the significance of a find like this.

How To View The High Bidder Of A Private Auction On Ebay

It wont be long before Ebay fixes this, but for now it's proved very interesting when looking at auctions by Comic-Keys.

-Login to your eBay account.

-In the right-hand top corner, click on "Advanced Search"

-In the left side-bar click on "Items by Seller"

-Enter Sellers User ID

-Under "Items for Sale by seller name", select an 'auction' currently in session and then..

-Select "Watch this item", in the upper right-side under the eBay Item #

-At the top middle of the web page, Click on "My ebay"

-Under "Items I'm watching", click on "Customize" link on right-side

-In "Customize Items I'm watching" window make sure that the "High Bidder ID" is inside the "Columns to display" box. If not, highlight "High Bidder ID" in the Available Columns box and use the Right arrow key in the middle of both boxes to move "High Bidder ID" to the "Columns to display" box.

-Go back to "My eBay", Scroll down to "Items I'm Watching", and look for the "High Bidder" under the sellers name auction currently in session.

-You should now see the un-hidden high bidder for that auction. Click on the name of the high bidder.

-You will see the identity page of the high bidder. Click on "Contact Member" button.

-Now you can contact the High Bidder of any of the sellers auctions.

Note that you should always disclose how you were able to find the high bidder of the private auction and reference the auction that you are referring to when contacting an ebay member, as this information is non-disclosed in subject line.

This information is meant to be informative only and I am neither endorsing nor encouraging anyone to violate Ebay auction tampering policies.

Good For Her

Halle Berry had the stones to do what most actors don't. She attended the Razzie Awards to accept her award for worst actress in Catwoman.

"I want to thank Warner Brothers for casting me in this piece of shit," she said as she dragged her agent on stage and warned him "next time read the script first."
