Yes, I guess when it happens to someone else it's extremely funny but when it happen to you, you harbor the memory for years! FRANC

He lives in Victoria, Australia and appears to be the buyer from hell. He purchased something from me on June 14. When I didn't receive payment from him, I sent him an Ebay Reminder ten days later on June 24, which did elicit a response and the response unfortunately was some nonsense about having trouble with PayPal and he wanted me to accept an alternate payment, which I almost never do anymore except for good customers that I've dealt with over the years. I reluctantly said I would accept a postal money order which he told me he'd send out by Express Mail. A few days later, he sent me some nonsense about how I should have graded the lobby card he purchased as Good condition and not as Excellent- because I said it had a few pinholes. This was before even paying for or receiving the lobby card in question and I probably should have known at that point that this buyer was going to be bad news. I told him that grading terms were subjective but a photo scan that was enlargeable was provided on Ebay, as well as a thorough description of all the defects on the card. He then sent me a list of links to photos of cards he owned which he wanted me to rate. I declined and asked him when he planned to pay for the card he bought from me. He once again promised to send the payment by Express Mail. As of last Thursday evening I still had not received a payment from this idiot and asked him for a tracking number which he refused to provide so I closed my Ebay Dispute and received a Final Value Fee from Ebay. He then proceeded to sent a tirade of e-mails, one of which DID contain a tracking number for an International Air Mail Delivery which was delivered to a USPS Disbatch Center in New York for distribution but was clearly not delivered to me as of yet. If I ever do get this payment, I'm sending it back unopened. I don't want to do business with jerks like this anymore. Life is too short. Unless you've got loads of patience, I'd recommend you add supabintan to your Bidder's Block List.
