		<description><![CDATA[Sometimes strange and funny things happens at eBay. Imagine paying US $21,000,000 for a piece of card which is worth US$0.01. See it to believe it.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In eBay, people buy things because one could <strong>bid and buy things at a great value</strong>. Sometimes the seller would earn more than the normal price of the cards. Buyers would also benefit where they take eBay like a <strong>trading tool</strong> (<em>buy and sell</em>).</p>
<p>Though at times, there are bound to be something <strong>funny going on eBay</strong>. While browsing through gaming cards, TechieDan stumbled upon one of the most ridiculous prices for a gaming card.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-963" title="Crazy Price Stomper Cub at eBay" src="http://techiedan.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/crazy-price-stomper-cub-ebay.jpg" alt="Crazy Price Stomper Cub at eBay" width="500" height="209" /></p>
<p><strong>US $21,000,000.00 for a piece of card</strong>. Let&#8217;s look at the description for this card then.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-964" title="crazy eBay stomper cub description" src="http://techiedan.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/description.jpg" alt="crazy eBay stomper cub description" width="500" height="201" /></p>
<p>The small text at the Q&amp;A reads</p>
<blockquote><p><em>Q. i mean seriously lol<br />
A. A new penny!!</em></p></blockquote>
<p>I guessed the seller was planning to make this thing on purpose. Either he was having a funny feeling or maybe he&#8217;s a whacko.</p>
<p>Wondering what&#8217;s wrong, we shall look further into the sellers other items.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-965" title="crazy ebay seller items" src="http://techiedan.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/ebay-seller-items.jpg" alt="crazy ebay seller items" width="500" height="291" /></p>
<p><strong>Everything was normal except the one above</strong>. At least this cracked me up while working in the office. If you wanna have a look at it yourself here&#8217;s the link to the seller <a title="Funny Price for MTG Card" href="http://shop.ebay.com/lovetosingrock/m.html" target="_blank">lovetosingrock&#8217;s store</a>.</p>

<p>After reading this, I find it&#8217;s a hassle to resolve something which one have been doing for the past few months. After looking though help sites from paypal, there are many cases unresolved. The money value in paypal is not little. As far as TechieDan is able to do, he will send in the documents first thing when he reaches home.</p>
<p>Will update more on this issue regarding Paypal.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Being a <strong>techist</strong> (<em>self created synonym for someone who is in love with tech stuffs</em>), after awhile you find that shopping online is way convenient. Well, some items you couldn&#8217;t get in your country, you can get it elsewhere and what <strong>better way to shop than going online.</strong> For those who love to bid and enjoy superb pricing on their products, one can do such thing on <a title="Ebay International" href="http://www.ebay.com" target="_blank">eBay</a>. Localized version are also available, as such my country of origin, <a title="Ebay Malaysia" href="http://www.ebay.com.my" target="_blank">Malaysia also has it&#8217;s own eBay</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://techiedan.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/eBay-Logo.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-757" title="eBay Logo" src="http://techiedan.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/eBay-Logo.jpg" alt="" width="450" height="337" /></a></p>
<p>One of the interesting things about eBay International though is that I can use <a title="PayPal" href="http://www.paypal.com" target="_blank">Paypal</a> to pay for my products. Now one thing a lot of people are afraid of <strong>shopping online</strong>, especially in the vicinity of a country like <strong>Malaysia, is security</strong>. Though after 20 over years, people have gotten confident in buying and selling their products online. Thus eBay has even helped the online community to ensure their transaction go as smooth as possible.</p>
<p>As of <strong>January 2010</strong>, eBay has introduced a new update to help buyers and sellers.</p>
<blockquote><p><em><span style="color: #3366ff;">New standard fees: FREE Auction-style with a low start price &#8211; Pay only if it sells<br />
New Stores fee packages: Fixed Price as low as USD3¢ &#8211; Subscribe or update now.<br />
Now just one Fixed Price format on eBay &#8211; Get full search exposure for as low as USD3¢</span></em></p></blockquote>
<p><strong><em>B</em>uyers get covered with the new protection program.</strong></p>
<blockquote><p><em><span style="color: #3366ff;">New eBay Buyer Protection program inspires confidence, boosts sales<br />
eBay Seller Protection &#8211; We&#8217;re here for you too!<br />
Top-rated seller status available for cross-border sellers on more eBay sites</span></em></p></blockquote>
<p><strong>Fees are updated for the following options</strong></p>
<blockquote><p><span style="color: #3366ff;"><em>Add watermarks to identify and protect your pictures<br />
List variations like color and size in one Fixed Price listing &#8211; extended to more categories!<br />
Category and Item Specifics changes now consolidated with the rest of updates </em></span></p></blockquote>
<p>As an eBay user, I am satisfied with the services that eBay has offered TechieDan.</p>
<p><em>ps : I did not get paid for writing this article, I just wanted to create awareness in this society. By the way, how many of you here do eBay?</em></p>
