Sunday Sunday

It's a gray and rainy day.  The parking lot boasts still a handful of RV's full of football hangovers I suspect.  Otherwise, the party seems to be over for now.

In my eBay frustration, I realized that I sent the guy the wrong number.  So this morning I sent him the correct number and a photograph of the back the phone for proof and told him that since he already noted he does not view his final bid as a commitment of purchase, if I do not receive payment in 24 hours, I will sell the phone to someone who will pay me for it. 

Next time... if there is a next time... I will do it all way more smartly.

I have a fair amount of work work that I could do on Monday but think I'll do as much as I can stand today.  It feels better to be ahead and waiting than be behind and rushed.

But... first... I think some breakfast is in order.

Ebay is wonderful until you get a jerk like you got, then it is a pain. I would do exactly what you did, then bad feedback for him if he doesn't pay.

Nothing more frustrating then when you get a boozo on EBay. Just for future reference (and in case you haven't discovered this already) you can specify in your preferences when listing an auction that you would prefer that someone with no, or very low, feedback not be allowed to bid on your auction. I enabled these prefs a while back and have had very few headaches with people since.

Hope it works out...I would definitely leave neutral feedback at best provided that he pays you, of course-just not cool to win an auction and then add a stipulation to payment.

Good luck with it!
