Failing Forward

New greeting cards + new account + eBay = loss of 60 cents.

Well, what can you do? That's right 60 cents down the tube on eBay. Looks like at this point we'll just stick with our online sales and the brick and mortar. My only wish is that there were more things to try where the downside was only 60 cents.

We even got phished by firm in China looking for passwords. Best phish I've seen. They email you about your product asking if you will ship to NJ with a giant button to reply to the phish. Turns out the button sneaks you over to their site to collect your password and username.

They used an actual eBayer's account that was old and probably not being used anymore.

As a cow with some computer experience and some connections to Interpol, I set a trap for them.

Speaking of which, if ever there was a time to get together as Americans (I'm not French, although I like France's new President) and BUY AMERICAN wouldn't now be a good time - especially after China (I'm sure by accident) poisoned and choked our children.

Or is our desire for higher wages in the US and and refusal to buy anything but the lowest price an unsolvable problem? Hey, I'll chip in 60 cents to help...
