My dad's first eBay auction. :D

Here it is, go bid on it! 😀 (he is a gun/knife collector)

I showed him how to use the simple HTML tags for centering and heading and bold and stuff, and he suprisingly understands it. He made that entire auction himself, even took the picture and uploaded it. He only uses computers to check email at work... 😀

I am so proud... Now I know how he felt he taught me to ride a bike and I did it the first time 😀
 
Congrats for your dad, but don't plug his auctions here. He did a good job, but save his work as an HTML and post it...don't advertise his stuff.

you're an asshat. He's not plugging his dad's auction. If he was doing it on a knife collecting board, it would be different.
 
Good luck to him..


I started my Dad on eBay about 1 1/2 years ago.

He loves and and made enough $$$$ to get a boat "18ft chris craft with 120HP outboard" NICE!!!

I hope you Pop has as much fun and good fortune as mine did

L8r,
Jetsfanatic 🙂

 
not bad. very good for a first time.

the question is though how old is your dad? my dad is 60 and just really started to use the computer for stuff other then work. Now he e-mails me all the time sends me weird links. he has a ebay setup also. he buys and sales a bunch of crap!

heck he is even thinking of makeing a web page for his business! heh

Case knives come already opened from the factory, they aren't sealed.

Only accepts money orders? Boooo...you need to introduce him to PayPal next.

I know, I think that is a lesson planned for this weekend 😀

He probably hasn't figured out how much ebay takes from your sale yet.

He does, I printed out the Fees page for him to see. He is good at wheeling and dealing, so he gets great deals on stuff like that. He is all mad that you can't sell guns on eBay. 😀

Did he spam the board with lots of eBay auctions? No, it was one link, in a thread that specifically said it was about an eBay auction, in OffTopic.

Can you see the difference, or are you really that dense?
 
I taught my uncle how to use the computer and now he sends me links to stuff from like 3-4 years ago!

Case in point...he sent me a link to AYBABTU saying 'wow you gotta see this...its soo funny!' just a few months ago...
