Sellers that offer Pickup Only-No Shipping

This is an open letter to all sellers that mat read this and if you are guilty of what I am referring to then you know who you are. Before I ride off into the sunset and away from ebay forever there has been one thing that has always bothered me, and it has to do with sellers of vehicle engines and transmissions that do not offer shipping and want you the buyer to drive across country to physically pick up and haul away whatever it is that you have purchased, ridicolous! Sellers, you do realize that by excluding any shipping of the item that you attempting to sell that you are limiting your potential buyers? That by listing an item and stating pickup only automatically causes me and I'm sure many others to just click off your ad and move onto to another sellers item. Perhaps if ebay can ever pull their heads out of the sand and get their ebay motors problems resolved they might look at having an entire section that is devoted to only those items and/or sellers that refuse to have any shipping, just make it their own little 'you come and get it' section, that way all of the other sections with items for sale would be a lot less cluttered, oh well just excuse me, I'm blowing off some steam, this has always been a pet peeve of mine, it sort of rings bells with being excluded and selective sales strategies, if a seller really only prefers to sell something locally and have someone come and pick it up then they should place their ads in the local paper or neighborhood bulletin board but then again what does it matter, with the way the new and improved ebay motors currently is, I will not be buying anything, anytime soon from anyone on ebay, moot point.
