Doing business is brutal!

[Mr. Wolf]

I'm having a sh!tty day. First, I had a guy from GA buy from me 127 DVDs, 1, 10, 16, and 100 from four different auctions. Closing two of them..

I did think it's suspecious, but money was good, more than $600.. I send him invoices. Less than two minutes later he tells me I did not purchase those, it's fraud..

I go live chat and talk to them for 2 hours, 30 minutes of which were for me to remember my old phone number and e-mail address, from 4 years ago. Eventually they figure out that my account was compromised and was used to send e-mails from me.. They reset it and all that, and I changed my eBay and PayPal e-mails.. Then also they said buyer did bid and you should contact him and deal with him..

Now I have buyer who owns me $600 but I know won't pay. I told him contact eBay, get this squired out. I'm at a loss of $40 for final value fees and two auctions which close, so now I have less exposure. I'm loosing money. Plus I'm not positive about the out come of this sh!t..

Account compromising.. WTF is that sh!t? I'm a computer security expert and I don't do silly things.. But this is second time something similar happens, ever since I switched to gmail.. I had to change my e-mail..

Now, I added additional e-mail to PayPal and made it primary.. But I'm not sure if it will work and I will receive payments.. Holly sh!t, brothers...


All this sh!t while I'm in deep competition for global domination of this small a55 market, lol.. Some c0ck svcker from UK is competing with me, I'm stealing his business, trying to get rid of him.. Perhaps he is behind this.. He looks geeky too, has a weired picture.. Totally columbine, weired guy..


In fact, I just got a call from this Georgia buyer.. He did not made those purchases, and asked me for time when orders were placed.. I told him he is going to have to talk to eBay...


Sh!t.. This is so stressfull. World is closing in.. I also have playa haters in this appartment complex, hating my guts.. Then those fat and ugly women can't stand me..


I need a drink..

Take a deep breath...

It all worked out well. They refunded final value fees, and insertion fees for two closed auctions. Plus I sold the guy to buy DVDs from me, and we exchanged 3 positive feedbacks. So I've made some money.

But time lost. I could have listed to so much stuff, they had a 10 cent deal yesterday for listings. Instead, I started at 9 and went through 3 in the morning, listing stuff.

A lot of the time a compormised account means nothing but someone was trying to guess your password and that triggered an automatic red flag. If they actually were able to gain access (are you sure they sent emails via your accounts?) then you need to choose better passwords and protect them.

I just looked up all my fees, for eBay, PayPal, shipping, logistics.. Then came up with my profit.. I was like WTF, I'm doing all this for these numbers??

My mission is pure here, to spread some stuff. But damn I'm not making as much as I thought I was making. Like half went to pay for things.

This whole operation is not even two weeks old. Yet it seems like it was going on for a while, things are moving really fast. I'm checking out calendar now, I can't believe it is not even two weeks.

Even now I still have to spend money, to really kill my competition and force him off my market. When I calculated his profits, he is at 30 percent of my profits. I'm hopping he burns so I can spend less money.
