I should have read the TOS!!! I know better but I've been looking for this particular widget forever and can never seem to get one in my price range. I finally find one and got so excited I just bid. After I win I go and read the TOS and Feedback. Unbelievably high shipping and absolutely horrible feedback. It's my own fault and I'll deserve the neg 100% if I back out of this transaction now. Like I said, I know better, I'm just venting!!!

Grumble!

At least the seller scared off your bidding competition.
So, just how badly do you want this widget?
Worth taking a chance?

I know I'm in search of a couple of things, and I might take a chance on a so-so seller if the negs aren't for theft.

That's what I'm trying to decide. Most of the negs have to do with shipping overcharges, sloooooow shipping if you don't double the already outrageaous charge to upgrade to "Rush" and general product issues.

This widget doesn't appear to be something they usually sell and not something that is subject to performance issues so I'm not terribly concerned with getting something that doesn't work.

The other thing this seller seems to do is not contact the winner if they don't like the final outcome. Lots of negs for that. I'm sort of hoping at the moment that they decide they don't like my bid and ignore me!

The good thing is that, even with all their negs, they haven't left a single one.
