which makes the 460 Launcher an outstanding value in my opinion

self employment ideas May 20th, 2008

I’ve tried quite a few drivers, and, for me, this is the best of the best. Was fitted on a Launch Monitor, use a ProV1 ball, am 57 yrs. old, 5′9, 185 lbs, 93-95 mph clubhead speed….. the 9.5* loft and R flex shaft gave me the best consistent results and distance.

I can hit fades or draws if wanted but have to work at it as the ball wants to fly high & straight. Decent swings get good results, good swings get excellent results.

Get decent feedback, can usually tell from the feel what kind of contact I made and where on the face. The head sits up well to the ball, alignment isn’t a problem. It’s not flashy looking like some which is fine with me, however my biggest knock on it is that I think the gold color of the stock shaft is king of ugly (no big deal).

The price is better than some, which makes the 460 Launcher an outstanding value in my opinion.

This Driver is helping this older round-belly keep up with a lot of the young flat-bellies off the tee. I had a 2.4 handicap 6-7 years ago, probably closer to a 10 now because I don’t get out as much and have lost some consistency, but the foregiveness of the Launcher helps make up for my practicing less.

Make money shopping on eBay!

self employment ideas March 15th, 2008

Would you like to earn money shopping on eBay and several other fine name merchants on the Internet? Of course you would. Well here is the program you have been looking for to start saving money with all of you online shopping.

BigCrumbs is a free program that lets buyers earn money 2 ways when they shop on eBay and over 125 other online merchants. The first way is when you shop on eBay you can earn cash back rewards equal to as much as 36% of an eBay sellers?sales fees for everthing you buy on eBay for yourself. The second way you make money is by sharing this program with friends. When you refer a friend or associate to BigCrumbs and they start shopping on line you earn a percentage of the cash back discounts they earn. This is the best program yet on the internet. And the best part of this entire program is that it is FREE.

You can join BigCrumbs as either a CrumbSaver or a CrumbEarner. Whichever level works for you. Here is the difference.

A CrumbSaver is a member who shops through BigCrumbs.com and earns cash back on his or her own shopping, as well referral commissions on the shopping of any friends referred to BigCrumbs.com. CrumbSavers earn the maximum amount possible as rebates on their own shopping (listed beside each retailer).

A CrumbEarner earns a generous, but lower rebate on his/her own shopping. However, in addition to earning referral commissions on their direct referrals, they also earn when the CrumbEarner referrals of their referrals shop, and so on, up to 5 generations away.

This dramatically multiplies the amount a CrumbEarner can earn. In fact, CrumbEarners can suddenly find themselves earning additional income from the shopping of thousands of members, many of whom they don’t even know!

The entire program is explained at BigCrumbs.com. If you go there to check it out and sign up I would appreciate you letting them know that

An over looked selling machine

self employment ideas March 15th, 2008

I just recently helped a friend new to Ebay become a selling machine on Ebay in less than two hours. Since he has a recurring selling product we both agree that the best selling tool is probally the least used of all avaialable at Ebay which is the Turbo Lister. Because like me he sells a product multiple times it just makes good sense and best use of time to list once, download to Turbo Lister and then continue to work on and enhance the listing for future live auctions. Anyone doing any kind of selling on Ebay should at least give the Turbo Lister a trial. Worse case you can just deleat it from your computer. But once you get spoiled by the efficiency you’ll become hooked and grateful that it is there.

SCAM Redirection Links Pages WHEN BIDDING

self employment ideas March 15th, 2008

Recently I came across an auction that was TOTALLY A RIP.

I clicked on the link and was ‘redirected’ to a page that was asking me to sign in again.

I happened to notice the header and it was a foreign website.!!!

PAY ATTENTION TO THIS WHEN BIDDING!!!

From there, the scammers can try to access you acct and your paypal acct. Many ppl use the same passwords…

I just had to point this out because it was scary!!

How to avoid an E-bay scam artist.

self employment ideas March 15th, 2008

You finally found what you are looking for. You have only 30 minutes left on the auction to obtain it. You are ready to just bid whatever it takes to win it. Hold it a minute…did you check their positive feedback? Sure you did and its great, so why shouldn’t you buy their product?

I was just recently scammed by someone on E-bay who appeared to have positive feedback. I’m an honest seller and a Paypal supporter that has purchased many items on E-bay without a problem. In my haste I went forward and bid on my item that was listed by a seller mygaminghaven. After the auction closed I wanted to pay via Paypal and realized they do not accept Paypal. I signed up for Bidpay as they requested thinking it offered the same protection. Now I have no item, the seller has disappeared and I have a pile of paperwork to fill out with my credit card company.

Here is how you can avoid my mistake:

Step 1 - Check how long the seller has been on E-bay, but don’t judge just yet

Step 2 - Check their feedback. You want to compare their seller feedback to the number of buyer feedbacks received. In my case the buyer feedback was higher and was for items that were 1 cent to 25 cents. The seller was able to increase their positive feedback, in a short time, with minimum cost in order to appear reputable. Many of the parties he/she purchased from are no longer registered with E-bay as well.

Step 3 - What payment methods do they accept? Compare these payment methods to the above steps to get a real sense if this listing could be fradulent activity.

Step 4 - Another item that would make the transaction more comfortable is looking for a completed About Me or My World page about the seller. Some honest people do not have them, however, a dishonest person holds many E-bay names and does not have time to complete them as they disappear as fast as they appear.

Step 5 - If you have the option, pay via Paypal. Your item is protected, the process is streamlined and easy to follow. If you pay via money order or Bidpay you will need to do the homework yourself if a bad transaction occurs with the seller.

I hope these steps will help you avoid what has occured to me. Luckily I have purchased a new game for my son through an honest seller and I paid with Paypal.

Happy Bidding from Happy Jack Ventures - John & Karen
