Is it just me...or does it sound like there may be a fee increase in the Wagglepop future? Quote:wagglepopCC1 10 Apr 2007 13:59[/quote] I can see it now...

Quote:Personally, I don't want to tell upper management anymore at the end of each fiscal month that we have been unable to cover expenses and submit multiple requests for overage checks. The wife (if there is one) with her favorite rolling pin in her hand is about to find out how deep he is into this.. and she's been working two jobs. If no wife....the banker is calling him about his 2nd and 3rd mortgage on the house... Either way the card house is about to fall. Anyone selling dog houses on WP? e-pets? Everytime I read something on WP that blames the sellers for his lackings...it makes me ill to think of these people just trying to make a living for themselves and their families. Being told it's your listings (or lack of)...your inventory....your attitude...your etc. etc..is about the worst thing a supporter of your cause can do..... Take reponsiblity for your actions...Ray......if you cannot do that you are follower/scamer not a leader |

Quote:There is a reason that Wagglepop works, and has unique features and systems and support structures that work. Work? For whom? It OBVIOUSLY doesn't work for sellers OR buyers, because sellers are leaving and buyers are nowhere to be found. Hello! "Unique features and systems"? Like what? No adversiting? An endless Koolaid-manufacturing production line? A spamamarketing staff? What's so frickin' unique about a $500 boxed R-script auction software program? Stop talking to your membership like they're all retarded. Quote:Wagglepop "the site" will be around for a long time, as we can scale things at anytime to operate in a more streamlined fashion, buy we think it's time for growth and nothing else.Bolding mine -- a Freudian slip, perhaps? What's a long time? Two more weeks? -- "Operate in a more streamlined fashion"? As opposed to what? How more streamlined can NOTHING get? Oh, and so NOW, after 3/4 of your membership has kissed your pathetic site's ass goodby, you figure it's time for growth? What were you thinking about when you had 939 stores? Great business plan there, Ray. Stop with the KaRay. Tell it like it is. You're broke, you've had enough, you've gotten all the mileage you can out of your con and it's time for Poppers to start sending out resumes. Don't wait for this faithful distillate to built your site for you -- they won't. The rest of us here could have, but you slit your own throats when you "deleted" our talent and threw us overboard like yesterday's garbage. Shame on us for wanting to make a living. And shame on you for continuing to scam these gullible sellers. When the current loyalists figure it out they will be your most vocal adversaries. Hope you got your tickets to Brazil in hand. |

Quote:wagglepopCC1 10 Apr 2007 13:59[/quote] That's what I was thinking a few of the post on that thread seemed to hint of a fee increase to me. Sad thing is judging from some of the responses Ray could probably convince some of them that this would be a good thing you know so WP would have more money to spend on that marketing that they won't discuss. :blinkie: |

Re: Wagglepop 2: Deja Vu as Auction Site That Left Sellers Stranded Reopens
I can see where this is headed...
"Karen" (Ray) is going to have to get "upper management" (Ray) to pay more money out of his pocket again this month because WP (the poppers) haven't been able to generate enough revenue to cover the expenses. Karen will come back to the poppers with the sad news that Upper Management says if something doesn't change soon, they will have to close the Wagglepop doors. The Poppers will immediately begin to beg Karen to let them pay more per month just so the site will stay for the long haul. Scoop...you and I are apparently thinking along the same lines! :blinkie:

How much more double talk are the sellers going to put up with??? |
