Did you check out her feedback?
Has she purchase multiple items from the same sellers in the past?
If so, I wouldn't be concerned.

Invoiced 9 items, paid promptly, items were received today and she left feedback. Invoiced next 11 items, paid pormptly items left this morning. Invoiced 6 more items this morning, paid almost immmediately. They will leave tomorrow. Have 12 more items to invoice and she is still bidding. Guess I was just paranoid.

Congratulations Merrie,
Looks like you have found yourself a "New Best Friend".

Well, maybe.
What kind of margins is Merrie getting on these items? Her buyer isn't such a great friend if she's getting a steal on each one.

I wouldn't say this buyer is my best friend, but she certainly is a very nice cyber chum.
My margins are excellent, as stated in an earlier thread, I start my auctions at a price I can live with, which is a good profit. If it does not sell, I will relist or wait. I do not list things at a loss. Many of the items this customer is buying have been bid up. Not all are at the starting price, which would still be OK with me since I start my auctions so that I make a good profit. No one steals from me.

Yep, it's a bold statement.
Completely unsubstantiated by any evidence, but bold nevertheless.

i think the evidence of these fast payments is pretty good, fluff!
edited to add, okay, maybe fluffy's saying this is all 'fresh new' biddings/and /payments, and might be an unauthorized credit card paying for all these, which could be swooped out from under merrie in a split second, six weeks from now.

Merrie,
I take it you haven't enjoyed 2008 any more than I have on the stock market! Dang!

cash: the stock market is stinking up the place. Hopefully it will turn around and quickly.

Sounds like she /he is a binge buyer. Some get money for Christmas, a bonus or just fall off the frugal wagon.
