why are buyers so stupid bidding on items days before an auction finishes, do they know what a auction is? you bid just before it finishes that the thrill of bidding, then you whinge when you have paid $100s more than normal, start bidding 5 mins before the auction finishes then you might get a bargin,

@k1ooo-slr-saleswrote:sorry, but I find large slabs of text without full stops hard to read . Probably because I use full stops as a trigger to breath. I used commas as my triggers when I read your text, but then it didn’t make as much sense as it should.
So I guess I’m saying I am not able to properly reply to whatever it is that you have posted.
well, here’s the post that first got you hot under the collar.
Note that I started with “sorry” and then proceeded to identify my own failing in finding large slabs of text without full stops difficult to read. I did try to read your post, and knowing that many posters here also find large slabs of text without full stops and paragraphs difficult, I posted so you would be aware of that . . . . . . . . and I own that failing.
stawka posted in reply to my post to let me know I was not alone.
My reply to stawks then made a reference to “vampire”, and this is a reference to another poster who posts in a way I also find hard to read/follow . . . . . . . again, my failing (I hope you did not think I was referring to you).
https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1325446
They were the only three posts added before you came back today. When you returned I posted “pass” as I didn’t want to get into an argument with you, and I still don’t.
I also use “eBay” instead of “Ebay” as “eBay” is the correct spelling, even when it starts a sentence.
I always use lower case characters when typing an eBay ID even if that ID is a proper name or is at the start of a sentence.
All of this makes me who I am on this forum . . . . . it is MY style, just like having distinct points in each of many paragraphs in a long post is part of my style.
And I use full stops at the end of a sentence.
If you are interested in what I have to say on this topic, read my previous posts that were added to this thread before your first.

P.s I use a phone not a computer and for some reason you and many other's that speak of this edit / delete option, it just doesnt exist using a phone even before 5 minutes..believe me I've tried and do ya blame me after this psychological torture 😨
when using a mobile, go to the bottom of the page and where it says “Version: mobile / full” and click on the “full” link to be able to edit a post. Once you have edited a post you can revert back to “mobile” view by going to the bottom of the page again and choosing “mobile” link.
Also, when using a mobile, it helps if you start your posts with “@userID” of the poster you are replying to. Otherwise, it looks like you are replying to the opening poster.

I got to read your post before your edit.
I can see your (now deleted) point of view, but would add that posting on online public forums requires posters to develop a thick skin.

Look I've learned a lot tonight and here it stops.
I'm just going to buy my stuff and stick to my tactics and the world be none the wiser.
What happened today and tonight is the reason i don't do social media.
So go for it make fun and have a laugh but remember it'll be amongst yourselves as i won't return here ever again.
Happy Bidding 👍 😆
