I have a very simple idea for a business. This MUST have been thought of by loads of people before, so do you know any organisations that do this?

The fundamental idea is that buying in bulk gives you a discount. So if you want to buy... say... an iPod as a christmas present, you sign up to a website, saying "I'm looking for an iPod some time in the next two months." If, for example, 1000 people want to buy an iPod, then you bulk buy 1000 units, take half the discount and pass the rest on to the customers. Of course, it would only be possible with certain products or services.

If you know of an organisation that do this, let me know. If there are none, I suppose I'll have to set one up.

I had an interview that I felt went very well. A couple of days later they called and said that my application was submitted for a background check...then 2 days ago they called and said my check came back good, and that they were continuing the check. How long will it be before they call with a job offer if they do call?

Recently I was taken to court for a vehicle I had repossessed almost 7 years ago. The judge denied the plaintiff the judgement going against me. Does this mean I can have the debt removed from my credit report? Or will the collection account still be on the credit report? Basically I won the case and I'm not sure what happens next. Thank you.

I have a PayPal account with some money in it. Before 9/16, it was unlimited, while I was working on getting a bank account set up. At 9/16, I got a notice from PayPal saying that I have to update my account before it's limited. So I did my password and profile. But I couldn't do the bank account nor debit card. A week after, I went back to Paypal to do the bank account. But it wouldn't let me do it. It said it was limited and wouldn't let me set me up and verify the account. Now I can't take money out or add new things to it. Can you help? I'm a first time Pay Pal user.

My problem is that we have a contract on our house, the person who offered on the house has submitted all the necessary paperwork to their mortgage company, and has received her commitment letter back from them; however, a closing date has yet to be set. My realtor tells me that the ladys application is through with the underwriting, the commitment letter from the bank was received last week and we are just waiting on the mortgage company to get all of the numbers together and email that info to the title company. We have been waiting a week today, why can no one give us a closing day? How long should this take? We feel like something is wrong but no one will tell us? Any opinions?

I was getting paid at $12.00 per/hour. One day when I looked at my pay stub, and I saw that they garished .25 from my pay without notifying me first. My employer told me he spoke with the company, and it wasn't within the contract(I didn't sign a contract), which I knew nothing about. I was hired at that rate so can they do that, even without notifying me, and for any given reason?

Me and my fiance signed with a realtor to buy a house and have deposited our funds into his escrow account. How we are unable to get a bank loan because my fianace is not 21 years of age and cannot own property unless she gets her minorty waived which is not an option b/c it would drop her from her mom's federal health insurance plan.

We where never told that Jennifer could not own property, we cannot secure any type of loan with any bank for any amount, regardless of making a down payment or not, b/c my credit alone is not good enough to get a loan with only my signature, and I cannot find someone with good credit to co-sign with me. We are simply unapprovable at this point in time or until 4 months passes when Jen is 21.

My question is this, the realtor has informed us that the $500 that we gave to him which he deposited into escrow can only be given back to us if the seller wishes to, which I cannot just see someone giving back $500 of free money to them back to us.

What are my options? Do a stop payment on the check and risk being sued. Say that the contract is void b/c we where never informed that Jen could not own property. Say that the contract is void b/c Jen's signature is all over the buyer's contract which in itself makes the contract void b/c she at the time of signing the contract she was a minor.
