Ebayer Warning (1 Viewer)

[tdubel]

I have a warning for community with regards to a UK Ebayer. Bottom line is very rude, low feedback (no negatives) and unreasonably demanding. My long story short - found 2 items this morning, one was described as damage, but I think fixable. SO I requested total since I am in the US and it is not simple shipping (around 8:45AM), I went away from the computer til around 12:45 and I see that I have received 2 invoices within the span of 20 mins (10 and 10:20), then a message at 11:20 with a very rude demeanor that said , if you are not paying, I will be forced to cancel...…………………… OK so in the span of 4 hours, I was being accused of non payment and I didn't even know that an purchase was accepted! SO, I thought about it and replied cordially with I just got your invoice and I will be paying before the end of tonight, but I mentioned that I was a little concerned with the tone of the message and that if the seller couldn't wait 12 hours for payment, then by all means it is your prerogative to cancel the transaction...…...about 30 mins later I get an email/message basically berating me and saying the sale is cancelled and thanks for wasting their time...……..OK WOW was my reaction, but then I figured, WHEW, I am lucky, this individual probably just saved me from a waste of time, money and a miserable transaction. Anyone with that kind of demeanor and attitude is not worth purchasing a toy soldier from. Can you imagine what it probably would have looked like when it arrived? Oh and by the way, 137 feedback total...………………. I am amazed at times at the type of people in this world. Like I said, I should be thankful that the person raised such a red flag with me that I let the transaction go.

Thanks for alert, yes sounds like it may not have been an enjoyable transaction.

That behavior sounds way beyond just being rude.
Whenever I sell on ebay I always looks forward to meeting new collectors that share the same interest. And I would never think of accusing anyone of non-payment. I always assume I am going to get paid.
