Re: please guys don't do this (sell hand-outs on eBay)

Sure, everyone has the right to do whatever they want with their possessions but I guess I am just old fashioned. I figure if someone spends their money on something and then gives it to me because they want me to have it and think I would appreciate it then I shouldn’t try to sell it in such a public manner for all the world to see whether I like it and want to keep it or not. I think of it this way, if my grandfather gave me his pocket watch because he wanted me to have it, I bet he would get his feelings hurt if I pawned it because I wanted a new Ipod. Sure, I have the right to sell it and it is just a watch but is it worth having hurt feelings? Sure it is the owners right to sell it but I think it is kind of tacky and disrespectful. To each their own though.
