Diggler Posted May 21, 2004 Share Posted May 21, 2004 You take two, the only two, negative feedbacks and make it sound like they are par for the course with the seller when that obviously isn't true. The guy looks like a pretty good seller to me. He has 575 positive feedbacks and 2 negative. That's a pretty good percentage and brings into question the people who left negative feedback rather then the seller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NDSU grad Posted May 21, 2004 Share Posted May 21, 2004 I actually thought it was pretty funny. Any idea how old that is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fedorov Posted May 21, 2004 Share Posted May 21, 2004 This is the comment that bothers me, it was made by the seller. Who does it bother you? Do you get pissed at people selling you stuff? Seriously, if you have 600 good sales, and in one case a guy is being a jerk to you, would you want to deal with it? There are millions of people to sell to on the internet, and there is no reason to take abuse for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Name calling on a messageboard is one thing, but posting it on your ebay feedback might not be the best business practice. The customer is always right.

WYOBISONMAN Posted May 21, 2004 Share Posted May 21, 2004 Not sure, I started at NDSU in 79 and went through Grad School there and never saw one of those pins, so I bet it is from the early 70's. Heck, I remember back in the days prior to political correctness we had t-shirts that said "Sioux Suck" and had a guy with a feather in in head under the Bison trying to do you know what..... Damn, we gave up too much to be politically correct..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiouxMeNow Posted May 22, 2004 Author Share Posted May 22, 2004 ps...BISONMAV...you are one SOUR A*hole yourself...go back to BISONVILLE where everyone is happy and a longtime, loyal employee like George Ellis is now unemployed...quite a UTOPIA you've created for yourselves there...

I agree that the customer can be a moron, but stating it on your ebay feedback is not the best business practice. I guess maybe I don't know ebay that well, my feedback is only around 7,000. GarthND has more negatives than I do. I guess some people think it's okay to call people names on their ebay feedback. I will agree to disagree with you on that point. Siouxmenow, (alias Garth?) I have always heard it takes an A*hole to know an A*hole. So from one A*hole to another SEEEYAAA!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiouxMeNow Posted May 24, 2004 Author Share Posted May 24, 2004 Hey Mav! I'm not the guy selling this thing...just thought it was funny and posted it up here for people to look at. AND I do know an a-hole when I see one and IT'S YOU!!!!!!!! (this will no doubt come as no suprise to you) If you're SO EBAY PERFECT....what do you have running now we can look at?? I'd love to bid on of your items...I can be a very difficult customer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiouxMeNow Posted May 24, 2004 Author Share Posted May 24, 2004 ...getting back to the MAIN point...I see this auction has had well over 200 views...mostly due to people on this board!! I'm sure the seller is going "WOW - look at the views!!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sicatoka Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 ... go back to BISONVILLE where everyone is happy and a longtime, loyal employee like George Ellis is now unemployed...quite a UTOPIA you've created for yourselves there...

WYOBISONMAN Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 I have heard from reliable sources that is is not at all helpful with the media and that he has not really embraced the internet as a means of publicity. I think the lack of attention to the internet has been demonstrated in many ways. First, the GoBison.com web site is not as good as it could be. Second, Bob Holiday said on a post at Bisonville that George was never forthcoming with information to him or his website. That is unacceptable for a SID to be like that. He ought to be very helpful with the web sites out there that are promoting Bison athletics. Hard for me to figure why he wouldn't be. Back when I was in school he seemed like a good and capable SID, maybe he has just gotten to old an stuck in his ways for the job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
