Subject: Collector's Corner..Annoying Ebay Automated Message..

As anyone who has ever lost an auction on Ebay knows..soon after you lose an
auction Ebay will send you an email which is  as follows:

 "Sorry , you did not win the item. Find similar items now! "
and then Ebay proceeds to list auctions for similar items

while this sounds as if it is a nice feature of Ebay in reality it is nothing
more then rubbing salt into a still fresh open wound

i received this dreaded message not long ago when i lost an auction for a VERY
RARE chess computer

the items they listed were run of the mill chess computers that appear on a
daily basis

i think someone over at Ebay is Sadistic

Pissed Regards
Steve
