Then eBay removed that listing for gouging. I ordered something from a different seller whose listing was also deleted but that person got my order in the mail quickly and it's on the way.
I feel like a collaborator in Vichy France, but all the experts are telling us to disinfect up to three times a day and I can't use my diluted bleach solution on all surfaces.
Have you experienced similar dilemmas or lines you're not willing to cross?

In a perfect world you can tilt at windmills, but if you were to experience a tragedy because you felt that the extra $3 per bottle was too much I dont think your loved ones would ever recover. I taught womens self defense and I always told my students that if anyone ever attempted to rob them with a weapon they should freely hand over whatever valuables they needed to so.as to get the crimi al to go.away. I also told them to.call me the next day a d I would personally replace any and all.items or cash that they lost. I didn't want any of them to even hesitate to hand over a purse or wallet at the risk of their safety. (NOTE:This policy does not apply to someone trying to assault or kidnap...) I feel that you are in the same position, pay the rotten scum sucking rat and have faith in karma...
