"hand you and your head in a basket"
First, this must be a big basket, and it's gonna be heavy.
Second, who was he handing this big, heavy basket to?
Sorry, just couldn't help myself.

The hamster was a busy boy today
1,771 results found in all categories
1,771 7-day auctions w/buy it now = $796.95 insertion fees
If he maintains his 1.75% sell through rate he will sell 31 items = ~$400 sales before final value fees of $35 and PayPal fees of $21 = $344
Estimated 1 week loss $450
What's with the "sponsored links" at the bottom of his listings? Is that something eBay does or is he skimming a little from them? There are none of those in any of my listings.
Ed. Oh, wait. The "sponsored links" are on his old listings and completed listings. But I still don't understand how they got there. I've never once had a "sponsored link" on any of my eBay listings: active, sold, completed, or any other status.

Ummm Raytard the Boinktard, here's 2 alternative selling strategies since you seem incapable of turning a profit with your current business plan:
Plan A: scrap the auction listings w/ buy it now and switch to 30-day fixed price listings or store inventory listings. You'll still lose money but not nearly as much.
Plan B (the recommended one...GET A FRIGGIN' WEBSITE)
1. close the money losing eBay store
2. delete the current Wagglepoop auction site
3. abandon your plan to turn Waggleflop into an Amazon affiliate site
4. Download Zen Cart or PrestaShop or Magento and take advantage of the 15-20K traffic WP currently receives by turning WP into a Wagglepop Magazine Cutouts store.
5. (optional)
BBH: I would vote for Plan B. Ray, however, wouldn't consider it because:
(1) He is congenitally allergic to success, and
(2) It is a smart solution that came from you, a morally-bankrupt miscreant and troll. He does, after all, have his over-inflated, Boinktardinal ego to protect.
Yeah... even Boinktards have their standards!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

With all we've done to help build WP's traffic over the past 3 years I think Ray owes everyone who has posted on this thread a share of the proceeds if he finds a buyer for WP
