I had a bidder win one of my auctions and after my notification, I received another email asking if I "Really was from Kodiak" and what was my "ancestral name" and was I one of the "Real People" from that region. It was actually a very hostile letter as I asked several folks to give me their take on this. Yet the payment came today and I feel as if this is a "set up" with a negative coming for "no reason" and I truly wanted to say that I was an Alien, to the Real People part. Wonder where the line is drawn on nasty letters. The problem originated I think when I refused to send any information on the Island that they own buildings on that was a very larger town before Kodiak was even a town. But they have already wrote 3 books of the area and I didn't want to divulge any personal family info, as I too am writing a book. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Send the item, notify them that you've sent it, leave professional feedback, and move on.
Ignore any further email from them if you want.
