Little Ebay Gripes
It's probably no real secret that I've been dumping a lot of parts lately from my 10+ year stash consolidating what I have... even selling off several of my nice restored Cubs and attachments I said I'd never part with. I've sold some things on Ebay and its been nothing but a nightmare. Among the problems, I've had at least two other sellers sharply slashing prices to undercut me when I list something (makes you wonder how much they marked up before and they don't realize when my one item is gone so am I in the market, so not exactly competing), 1 Ebay tractor-parting regular message me and ask me to remove my item because its inferior to his and he even falsely reported it to try to shut it down, 3 non-paying no show bidders that have cost me sales and wasted my time, and 12 people that never left feedback after I left it (both buying and selling). This is all since 2012 started by the way.
I'm not trying to start an uproar and understand free economy and competition, but come on... are people this desperate to control every inch of the market every minute and have nothing real to do in life but attack others? Guess I'm just blowing off steam for once, not trying to start a war.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
