As I mentioned before I’m trying to sell my old TIVO. I put it up on eBay on the end of September. It finished it the Friday before my Reunion and I was hoping when it closed I’d get paid right away via PayPal and I’d go get a new camera that Saturday.

Alas it was not to be.

I didn’t hear from the seller until Monday and he said he’d send me a money order. That was the last time I heard from him. I did all the asshat reporting to eBay. I waiting to do the last step because they won’t let me until 10 days after my last warning.

I put the TIVO back up on eBay last Sunday and it closed today at 1:50. By 2:30 the package was in the mail. I had payment with in like 15 minutes. And it closed higher this time.

As a seller sniping is cool. I thought it was going to go for $125 until the last 10 seconds when it jump to $154.

So tonight I’m going to the local camera store and attempting to trade my Nikon 4004 and some cash for a Nikon N80. If that works out there will be new pictures on Monday.
