I'm declaring war.... - Page 3

Here's my emails w/ the cool guy:

My first one: You're pathetic

Him: Why is that?

Me: Because first of all, presales almost always generally suck. Second of
all, the passwords are FREE...uh, hello? NicksFix.com???????

Him: Oh really? I honestly don't know. I get my passwords from a source for a
small fee and then usually sell them on ebay...figures that the
information would have to start somewhere and be free...

Me: Well, speaking on behalf of all the diehard Stevie fans, we'd all
appreciate it if you'd (a) stop wasting your money by purchasing
passwords, and (b) stop taking advantage of fans by selling them on ebay....thanks!!

Him: Can I ask? Are you contacting all those who have listings? Also, I can
say from experience that most likely anyone who is buying the pass codes
is a broker and not someone that is a fan, because as you so aptly
pointed out any real fan would visit the official website first!

Me: I did email one other seller... Brokers suck - the whole concert ticket
industry sucks...I refer to Ticketmaster as "Sticketbastard." :-)
Yeah,most real fans would visit the official site first....but even the
casual fan, including the naive ones who don't know any better, don't deserve to be ripped off by someone on ebay selling them a "free" password.

Him: You know what...in this particular instance I will pull my listing. I
don't know much about Stevie Nicks, but because you seem like a decent
person I will pull the listing. I don't want to be thought of as a bad
guy...

Me: Thank you!!!

Well, let's see how long this lasts. I tried to time it so that it would show up right below one of the password auctions, but I couldn't get the end time to be that specific: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=7520624386.

OMG - that? Is hilarious. Way to go!
