    Me too, as I said above.

    Please make the poll options clearer next time, otherwise the results will not mean anything.

    That's inflation and deflation at the same time.
    And notice who is going to get screwed in the middle ? Yes the average wage earner. (buyer)
    Bi-flation? That's a good one! Hadn't heard that...

    Things in the US are not pretty... well, except for the very rich, who are getting richer by using the money they already had to mop up after other people's misfortune. An acquaintance of mine (for example) has been using part of his wealth from being an early part of Microsoft to buy up dozens of houses (with cash) at distress prices and renting them out. Must be nice.

    Meanwhile the price of food is up. The price of gas (petrol) is up. The premiums on my wife's and my health insurance and car insurance went up about 15% this year. Large companies say "Well we have to raise prices, because we're doing less business, and making lower profits." Oh yeah? And how exactly are people supposed to pay for that?

    As for how sales are going... well, I'm still new here. In other venues (where I am an established seller, with an established clientele) they are "fair to middlin'."

    Cheers,
    Peter

    Hi and welcome to eBid. I agree 110% with what you wrote, maybe another reason I've never liked rich people, their seemingly innate selfishness and greed, (not that I know many, but the ones I'm aware of do fit that description to a tee).

    BTW: LOVE your avatar pic, where did you get it? I am a huge lighthouse fan.

    Best wishes for many sales to all,

    Out of nowhere this has become my best selling month on eBid so far (granted I've only had four of them, mind), having had my monthly sales spike upwards by 100% (from 2 to 4 ). Good times.

    Bring on the month of May!

    I've had two sales here so far, and I'm pretty new here. My primary item is a niche jewelry item that doesn't appeal to everyone and I'm the only one selling them here last I checked, so I'm going to say it's not a bad start overall.
