I just bought my ONLY Second thing on e bay....The first thing was broken. Seller offered NO recourse,,,,NEGGED that SOB!
Now this last week....I WON a camera I pay paled the guy the NEXT morning, 6 a.m. Thursday morn. Monday comes,,,,,
Hello buyer,,, I have not heard from you , blah, blah, blah,,,
Hello Seller,,,your pay pal account says you are not registered and your e mail address keeps Bouncing back....
I pull the sellers contact info and call him...
Hello,,,,,I tell him the tale,,,He's sorry and will get his stuff in order in the meantime I say I'll just send a Money order. and I do....
I get an e mail from seller, got the MO. but with the Holiday and blah,,,,fine I understand....Now TODAY I get ANOTHER e mail,,,oops,,,,My wife figgured she'd shave a few bucks off shipping and sent it parcel post. Not what was said in the auction,,,,PRIORITY and Priority would be a VERY nice jesture after all this screwing around....Even if it was Not stated IN the auction.....
The guy on his own, (I never once mentioned any feed back) is now REAL appologetic and wants to send $5.00 and Hopes there will be no negative feed back left....
They Attempted to CHEAT me on postage!!!!!!! OMG!!!!!! the NERVE! hahahaha...
Now I ask....what oh what do I say in feedback and by the way, This Camera BETTER work!!!!!!!!!! I wanted it FAST as mine Broke.

Glad to hear you are still breathing, Jack.
Hopefully the camera works when you receive it and the seller puts that $5.00 in an envelope and mails it to you. I would make sure the seller left feedback first before leaving any for him just in case you decide to give him feedback that's negative ...

Hi Jack,
Always glad to see you.
This transaction worries me because there are so many red flags & lame excuses.
You may have taken a risk sending a MO. It might have been better to say, Lets just forget the whole thing.
This guy could be a crook, a wacko or someone who doesn't take his eBay selling seriously enough.
Hard to say what FB to leave since you don't have either the camera or the 5.00, but
If all ends well then I would go positive with just something like...Finally received camera & it works.

Hey Jack, it is about time you checked in!
I'm with McJane. Maybe it is because there has been too many rats coming out of the woodwork, but your transaction has raised every flag in my book.
I think I would have to google this guy's personal info and make sure he has a real physical address before he received my money.
Hopefully he is just a newbie without a clue. I'm sure they still exist somewhere.
Keep us updated and let us know if you received the camera. If not, let us know which town the seller is in and we'll go have a "personal" chat with in.
