Bikes: S&M Black bike, Old school Cannondale MTB, De Rosa TT bike, Etc.. I own a shop.

Despite popular beliefe we were power sellers up until yesterday. We have tried to down play the situation but foo spoke up and Gemma from Australia is raising Hell on ebays boards also. We have now tried 3 times Yes 3 to get a road account going on ebay. Every single time we have tried some jackass in the suspension dept has shut the freaking account down with in 24 hours. Also every time they do they usualy take down a couple pretty serious accounts along the way. This time they took down as everyone now knows the new Road account, a Cellphone account I was financialy backing, ( any one need cellular accessories? ), and of course the seriuos slap in the face the Track account. As was mentioned recently all over these post. The Track account was running 100%. Not a single complaint. There will be more people to fill my shoes on ebay soon. I refuse to deal with the crap again on a personal level. I will make a list of notes for someone to get the sources, and sell the stuff on line. I will go as far as to help with their pricing to protect the riders. But past that I am sick of some ******* in Ebay with a road account seeing a threat start up and close them down.

We own several web sites and we were going to launch them by the first anyways. This was going to be a quiet endevor but since Foo posted I might as well tell all. I guess I should not be so fair to people but I am. I do not post names of dealers that cus me out I tried to down play the Crap an ebay employee keeps pulling etc...

In short www.houseoftrack.com will be live by Monday. I am personally behind 72 emails as I type this. I have been playing with designes for the site all night and I honestly think I am going to stick with a basic ebay look and just use Paypal since thats what everyone is used to.

For the record I have sheep, and wool makes me itch so we are not going on the Lamb. Just growing up in business and getting like everyone else and saving over $300.00 a month in fees. I talked with the employees yesterday and they are not happy over the mess but theres nothing legaly we can do until the person is caught. As you can guess as soon as the first account was touched we sent an email and started calling in. As guessed we were treated about as good as you guys. No return emails and blown off.

Anyone that is unsure whats up or just wants to lend a shoulder for us to cry on can reach us at 1-877-717-1775. Toll free. Anyone that had an order on before ebay was screwed can still use paypal and pay we are not going anywhere. If you already paid your order is more then likely shipped by now anyways.

Oh and the shop changing to apointment only has been a complete success. We are still working on the build out but so far people are making apointments and coming in. We are very happy on that level at least.

I need to get a few hours sleep. Everyone thats frm the shop is asleep but me. I have been here playing with the site. Feel free to call after noon to say hi or what ever. Thats Vegas time please.

Thanks, Neal and the rest of the crew here in Vegas.
