Damn. I guess the price went down. Last week I paid $9.95 for an auto quote.

It's an affiliate for InsureMe.

Maybe I should do the same thing. Probably an easy buck in there to make.

Well that is clever marketing. Not sure if it works, but it is clever. This reminds me of my single days. I put myself up for auction on ebay. Got a few dates out of it too. It was fun for a while, then it got embarrassing when people recognized me when I didn't want to be recognized.

I saw a CFP try to sell financial planning advice on ebay once. I sent him a message asking if he had that ad on file with compliance and if he was registered in all 50 states to do business.

The auction came down the next day.

Although that would be a lovely story to tell one day, it was not the case. I am not married, although I do not consider myself "single" so to speak. I am happily attached, but not thanks to ebay.

Re: Agent Selling Quotes on Ebay             Go to Top

It is important to know, that if I pay for my free quote with paypal, the full purchase price is covered.

Of course, there are no returns of my free quote.

No wonder I don't buy insure-me quotes anymore.

Oops, sorry, when you posted tabout "your single days" I assumed you were married. Anyway, I will not pursue the issue.

Way to go DHK! He was a dummy for putting it there without compliance approval.

Hummmmm....

Dear stibroker0_1,

Thank you for your interest in a free insurance quote. I have seen that you placed a bid on the item. Just to let you know, because this is a free quote, there is no payment necessary after the auction ends. I will mark the payment received and leave you positive feedback for the transaction. I would appreciate it if you would do the same for me as well. If you have not done so already, to receive your free quote, simply enter your info into the quote box and click "Get Quotes" on the auction page to get started. Thank you very much for your interest and God Bless.

Wow, that seems a little shady to me. I wonder if Ebay has policies against that sort of thing?

Well I'm certainly NOT going to pay STI the 5 cents for the quote now.
