EBAY and the Average Like Person

Like Crumby is maybe the quintessential average male person.  He is not average in every dimension or regard.   But average in sum.  So Crumby figures that his experiences purchasing saks on EBAY must pretty much reflect the average experience.

OK.  Crumby has purchased used, 19 Vics and 5 Wengers off EBAY.  That's 24 used knives.  Goodness.  Why would anybody but a collector need that many pocket knives?  Duh!

So, of all those 24 knives, four of them were not as described.  Yes.  And Crumby has black-listed the vendors of those knives except one.  The one is excepted because one knife out of a lot of six was defective.  Plus, the vendor didn't exactly specify that all the knives were pre-madonnas.

Course all black-listed means is, Crumby shall never purchase from those particular vendors again.  Because, they lied about their product.  And Crumby can not abide a liar, twice.

There is no such thing as a reason.  Only excuses. Crumby's 8th grade pe coach.

Go figure.  One in six EBAY used knives is liable to disappoint.
