YAET: Where'd all the items go?

[pontifex]

I regularly peruse Ebay for things I am interested in. One of the things usually brings up 10+ pages of items. I've been doing this for a few years. Today it only brings up 1.

Thats odd. I wonder if its a glitch, someone bought everything (lucky bastard!), or they all ended the same time?

Anyone else experience this before?

what are we talking about here? "mixed music CD" ? or what?

 

[pontifex]

:roll: yes, mixed music cds

no, just anything.

 

[Al Neri]

example?

 

[pontifex]

why do you need an example?
it won't help you anyway unless you also look for the same thing on a frequent basis.

something i look for frequently usually returns lots of items. today it returns very little.
i'm not spelling it wrong or anything like that if thats what you are thinking.

 

[CrackRabbit]

ebay is just like that sometimes, i remember searching for an item and coming up with nothing. A few days later I had two pages full when searching for the same thing.

I believe eBay is now banning sales of used panties, sorry

 

[maximus maximus]

blow up dolls / fleshlights?

 

[biggestmuff]

pontifex, can't you just purchase used socks via Craiglist or the local paper? You'd probable save on shipping costs that way.

no, not at all.
Discworld merchandise for fvck's sake. the item has no relevance to the question at hand but as per some kind of ATOT rule you have the need to make fun of me or put me down for some strange reason.

It's because just this week Ebay banned virtual goods. Most people assume, since you were so hesitant, that you were looking for virtual items.

why would i be looking for virtual items? i don't even play any mmorpgs at the moment and i would have no reason to hide it if i did buy virtual items.

so we have people admitting that they search frequently for beatiality items, fleshlights, and blow up dolls on ebay and are disappointed there aren't as many for sale as before.

wow, you all need some help

d00d... don't get all defensive. I'm not putting you down (or I don't care to). I just wanted to know what you were talking about so I could get a better understanding. Your OP was extremely vauge and made me that's all. You getting defensive made me think you were embarassed.

Take it easy man! I meant no disrespect.
