Some eBay sellers SUCK!!!!!

I've been watching this coin for 9 days and only one bidder. So I think to myself "wow" I might actually get a good deal on something off eBay. What do ya know I WIN!!!! Picked it up for a third of what I would have paid for it. I emailed the guy after the auction closed with my address and requested a total. I email again the next day. Then the next, ect.., ect.. It's been a week now and no response from this guy. What a jackass! I guess he didn't think he got enough for it, but OH WELL that's why they have reserve auctions!

Has this ever happened to anyone? If so what did you do?

Thanks

Chris

    Some sellers are just very slow. Others very disorganized. What's his history look like? Been around a while? Does he sell in high volume?

    His feedback is almost perfect. He also has more than 2000 positives. Just can't understand what's taken so long.

    Who is the seller? I've been trying to get a hold of srcinc today, to no avail. They sent me the wrong freaking coin.

    Chris,

    Just get his contact info and give him a call. I had one that didn't respond, turned out somebody else was doing the auction listings for him, and didn't forward the winning bidder's eMails.

    A lot of these sellers act like hotshots. They don't answer questions, don't let you know they received your immediate payment, don't let you know when they are shipping. Just wanna be business people IMO. And bad ones at that. They act like they are doing you a favor taking your money.

    Yeah, I'm in a good mood tonight.
