WTF! Eek

This guy is hoping to get $9,000,000 for one (1) Wii game console. I hope a non-paying bidder buys it. He will be stuck with $270,000 in fees and would have to fight ebay to get them back.

Grinch Item

Here's one for $10,000,000

Another wrong know-it-all answer from a wannabe.

No! It's not a joke auction. It's a legitimate auction where he tries to rip off buyers and ebay at the same time. He knows no one will actually bid. You will notice he is taking "offers". He has many of these and will sell them at higher than retail prices and not have to sell them through ebay. He gets their offer, refuses it through ebay and then sells it directly to them, outside ebay. That way he doesn't even have to pay ebay fees.

I could care less who he is. After his comments to me in the other topic and this one, my reply was warranted.

Being a marine only goes so far. I respect him, but I wont be treated like shit.

They can ban me if they want to. I'll just come back under a different name when my IP changes and I have a question. If they do ban be over this, it proves they are thin skinned hypocrites. I would expect someone who says something about someone to be able to take it back.

It's called respect kid. This is their house and you should respect that. If you are considering joining you better get thicker skin.

Make no mistake, I respect you all. However, regardless of how much I respect ipscone I will not let him treat me like a piece of **** when it is completely uncalled for. I don't ask him (or expect or care for him) to speak to me with any amount of respect. But I do expect him to be able to take a curse back if he says one to me. Being that he has not replied I will take it as such. If so I have absolutely no problem with him.

I get treated like **** all the time at work and say nothing about it. If he was my CO I wouldn't have said anything back either. But he is not my CO and I am under no oath to obey his orders.

I am in no way acting childish. Well, no more then ipscone. Unless there is a "Talk to marines like they are God, not people" rule.

Edit:
Perhaps I need to reclarify myself. I don't have a problem with Ipscone at the moment, he doesn't seem to care about my reply back. In which case there is no conflict, thus no problem.

Please enlist village....please. Whether you feel you are obligated to respect him or not makes no difference. Actually, what you think PERIOD makes no difference.
Go to bootcamp with this kind of attitude and you will get chewed up and spit out.

I say again, I would never talk like that to anyone in any sort of real authority over me.

Edit: And at the moment, you are right. It makes no difference if I feel obligated to respect him. Fact is I am not obligated in any way shape or form. But I still respect him as I do you and all the other military people here.

You don't understand. You owe that man your respect...even moreso if you plan on joining. He may have insulted you, he may not have. I don't care either way. As far as anything pertaining to the Marine Corps goes...you haven't proven or done ****. He has.

Granted, but he is not god. He says something to me he should expect to get it back.

I edited this in my last post after you posted your message, so I'll post it again

And at the moment, you are right. It makes no difference if I feel obligated to respect him. Fact is I am not obligated in any way shape or form. But I still respect him as I do you and all the other military people here.

My apologies. I'll return when I am ready to voluntarily kiss your *** with nothing to gain for it and nothing to loose for not. Or you become God, which ever comes first. Fact is, you insult me I will insult you back. There is no amount of respect that exempts that. Thats the point I've seen everyone here dance around and stop replying to when its the last thing to address. Perhaps because I am right about it.

Idiot, shut the **** up. Stick to the wannabe forum. Coming in a Marine house when you don't rate and getting a sore-*** is to be expected. Even if you enlist in the Air Force with that attitude, that crap won't be tolerated.
