Um, are you saying that all of those 'other' transactions are from
people that aren't happy with what I sold them? You'd think they'd
leave feedback if they were unhappy.

The posting started with a "FA:" indicator. You don't have to read it,
and if you do, that's your problem. You don't own this newsgroup; it's
a public forum and I can post whatever I want, whenever I want. Feel
free to *****. I've posted two items for sale in this news group over
the years so I don't feel I am abusing this forum ( I don't give a
**** if you think otherwise). My 'spamming ass'? Screw you.

I sell some electronics on ebay. Yes I make some money on that. I do
not make it a habit of selling brewing equipment there. This is a one
off on a brand new item and is at cost. You won't find one of these
for less than $500. I am not making anything on this - not that I give
a rip if you believe that or not. That's your perogative.

Again, you don't own this newsgroup. It's a public forum. You can
complain to ebay all you want. I am not SENDING YOU or anyone else
unsolicited emails. This is a posting to a public forum - you don't
have to read any "FA:" posts if you choose not to. I can post a
million messages about my auctions here if I want to. Ebay has no
problem with that. This will however be the last. Not because I'm
'afraid' of your empty threat, but because I don't make it a point of
selling brewing stuff.

Get over it and move on.
