Newest post on a boring day over at WP:

Good Evening/ Morning Wagglepop Friends,
Just upgraded my third store "xxxxxx" to featured!
Have a great Thursday with lots of sales everyone.
xxxx
But............this was not his first post on this topic...can you guess what the original one was?
I am kicking myself for not being fast enough to copy it.
The first one had a headline of stating something along the lines of "I closed my Store"
Then it said he decided to close his 4th store because it wasn't worth spending the money to keep only 10 items in so now he can focus on his other 3 stores, and has since taken that money and upgraded his 3 store to Featured Listing. And asked for everyone to remove the 4th store from friends pages.
Then the next post was from PS stating I noticed that today and have removed it. Then some other boosting nice comments.
Then poof, deleted. I guess it doesn't bother him, as he came right back and "reworded it"
See, if I hadn't spent so much time behind the gym.......

I also noticed that Beads by Brenda's inventory is looking quite thin lately. If I remember correctly, she had a lot more listings. ???

Sorry Platz but you aren't quite remembering with clarity. Put down those brownies!! Maybe FH will lend you her seeing eye dog. Â
As of Apr 24 she had 2,325 items listed.
    May 5       2,339
    May 17      2,602
    May 30      2,824
And those figures don't account for sales made between snapshots which she has been blessed with.

Hmmm.... I must be thinking of someone else then... I could have sworn she had over 6K listings... I deserve a good spanking... {{{giggle}}}Â
Store count 231! No soap for me. A lot of soap being tossed around on WP, and it looks like for good reason. WP is getting very SLIMEY these days. Check out this thread

And Mr. Kumbaya has blown the Koolaid stand? OMG, hell really did freeze over!
:o :o :o

Yes, I am alive and kicking, but have been overwhelmed by visiting relatives and out of town a lot. Will try to bring my laptop and check in every now and then! Congrats, Karma! May all your suds be happy.

He forgot to shut off the light!Â
Thanks DB. Maybe Ray should have tried to copy Etsy, as that is what appears to sell the most over there.
Ok, I am feeling neglected. No one commented on my previous post on how the man with 4 stores had his post deleted. Has anyone noticed him ever having one removed before?

FYI: "Sliming" is akin to "I scratch your back, you scratch mine" in the commerce world. This seems to be the order of the day at WP, and accounts for a large proprotion of the reputed "sells."

Anyone up for a slime thread?
I just went on a Pixie Soap buying spree over at L and B's Place. ;-)

Thanks Liz!
Boy, you are quick! I do the same thing, if I am lucky enough to be at the computer when an invoice comes in I get it out of the way!
Thanks again!
Patty

Hi Patty,
Yeah, I might think about a purchase for a few days or a few weeks or even a few years, but once I finally buy something, I'm ready for it! I want to pay and get it shipped.
I had the misfortune this weekend to fall in love with a couch. I've been shopping for one for about 4 years. We now have two full-sized teenagers but not a full-sized couch -- just a 12-yo loveseat. But it's just not in the budget right now. So I bought soap instead ;-)
I'm excited for my mom to get her soaps :-) With Priority Mail she'll probably get them by the weekend, huh?
Oh, and thanks for accommodating all my special requests ;-)

I feel a little stupid ... what's a slime thread??? I really never used the boards before wagglepop, so some of the lingo is still new to me.

Don't feel bad, Tonya. I didn't reply here either because I had no idea what I was replying to.

Sorry about that. Surely didn't mean to leave anyone out or make anyone feel left out :-(
Slime refers to the act of one making a purchase -- usually a boardie (someone who participates on the discussion boards) buying from another boardie. It's used as a verb -- I slimed XXXX.
Hope that makes sense.

Liz,
You are welcome! I love doing gifts for people. Yes, she should probably get them by the end of the week. They will be going out probably today on the way to Karate, otherwise no later than tomorrow morning. I like to hurry and get everything out of the way!
I can fully understand the couch thing! I have my hopes out for a nice table & chairs for my deck (currently sporting one of those melanite ones!) but the furnace needs to be cleaned & checked first as there is a bit of black soot near it (we have oil). So, gotta see what that is going to run us first! lol
XXXX & XXXX - "Slime" is a thread were people post what they just bought (or recently bought) from local sellers here on WP.
I know XXX doesn't have any young ones left at home, but Tonya - haven't you ever watched Nick?
Patty

I love sliming and enjoy being slimed
Here is my recent slime activity in the last few days:
Shopping spree at Pixie Soap to try out all Patty's spring floral fragrant soaps (and more). If you haven't tried her soap out, you are missing out on some great stuff!
Shopping spree at Unique Book Marks and Beads with a custom order for bookmarks plus a tile cell phone charm. If you haven't had a look at Tonya's store, go take a look. She has so many cute things, it will be hard to choose and she also does custom orders on some fabulous unique bookmarks:
Also had to spread a little slime to Way Back Vintage Ads where I found a really cool vintage ad for a garage door opener. If you haven't seen Brian's store, you need to check out all his cool stuff too. His store has lots of visual appeal along with being VERY well organized.
That is my recent slime activity....and there will always be more...
XXXXX

Sojo, he sells used laptops and laptop parts at LOW prices. He's even taking my hubby's dead laptop in trade. Whoo-hoo! I'll tell him about the Share Your Wares thread because I bet that he could get a ton of business from us since computers are such a huge neccessity for what we do here.

Good morning everyone!
I slimed Miss Brenda of Beads by Brenda Last night before bed. I wanted a new ankle bracelet! Fantastic stuff - Still saving for my custom mommy bracelet!
And before that was Christy's BookNook. I highly recommend the Stained Glass Color Books, those are so cool and look good on the glass with the sun shining through! Plus a nice selection of books! The kids like everything I got!
Wish List Slime - I want a watch and always check out Remotes for Less, there is one I want, but haven't been able to treat myself too yet! I am always browsing her store!
Have a slimey day!

Morning Karma, as a matter of fact he has had one post that I know of deleted in the past. It was a thread he started a couple of months ago about sellers leaving. It received a couple of posts before it was yanked which was within the hour. Didn't phase him then either.
and brownies for you two... sounds like you guys need to spend the day "undercover"... or should I say "under the covers"... tee hee hee 
 So basically any sales sellers are getting are from other 
? That explains quite a few feedbacks and sales reports....
