surrounded my morons

I updated my eBay profile today to express my discontent with the seller jj_watches. I also have a discussion board session going on eBay, but it is more of a venting session. I’m pretty satisified that if I file a claim with eBay and follow their procedures that I will come out O.K. in the […]
