Interesting Ebay transaction

In the time that I have been using Ebay I have not had any problems as a buyer or a seller until recently. I won an auction for a TJ Ford card that was under $2 and the shipping was more than the card. I paid that night via Paypal (January 2nd) and never saw the card. I politely e-mailed the buyer to say that I did not receive the card and he told me it went out on the 14th. I waited 10 days until the 24th and still no card so I e-mailed him again telling him to either send the card or refund my money.
The next day or so he credited my Paypal account for the amount of the transaction, and I have yet to post feedback on this one. He e-mailed me to tell me that he had a heart attack and was not able to get stuff out and that his wife was supposed to. While I would like to take people at their word this one does not pass the smell test. No communication on the card, stated he shipped it on the 14th (12 days after the lot ended) never got the card.
His user name is Kupickova and although I got the $$ should I neg him for this one?

He deserves a positive feedback from what you say. Buyers basically just want to know if a seller will come through and try to make things good if a mishap happens.
I personally can care less if a card arrives damaged or not at all if the seller is willing to make things right.
I am critical of the sellers that ignore you if something goes wrong.
Just relax and go ahead and bid on something else you want. Case closed.

When a seller posts feedback three days after the auction but states that he did not ship the card until 12 days after the auction ends that seems a little slow. When after a month goes by and the card is still not received that also seems strange. I did not question whether or not his illness was legit, but I did find it strange that while he could not ship anything due to his condition he did find the time to ship 15-20 cards and post feedback for other winners during that same time period - check for yourself.
I am going to not leave any feedback because while he did make good on refunding my $$ it was only after several weeks went by and numerous attempts to resolve the matter on my part. The purpose of feedback is to rate ebay buyers and sellers so others can judge whether or not they want to do business in the future with them. While giving someone a neg for something that is not legit I don't agree with the other side and letting people slide so they can do this to others does not sit well either.
Let it go - $2???? - Whether it is $2 or $200K if someone does not hold up their end of the deal what difference does the dollar amount make? That is like rating how your wife cheated on you - there is no degree just the fact of whether it happened or not. Maybe the next time this happens you will be on the other end and deal with it the way you deem appropriate.

You make a strong point about the principle of something-I agree with that!

Best advice I ever received from an older married man " if you ever think about cheating on your wife first go purchase a chain saw. Then cut everything you own in half and see how good your mistress looks afterwards!"

I think the humor was directed at your analogy and not personal - it's kinda like either you're pregnant or not - there's no degree - you made a really good point on principle and I agree. But as long as we are on a topic of what is discussed and how we respond - I can tell you that being new, I don't feel, at times, I may be taken seriously. In fact, I was attacked for agreeing with someone where the same topic was being discussed in another thread and this person stayed out of their way because these individuals had posts in the thousands! I don't think it is fair to characterize what you say - you asked for an opinion NOT judgement on what you were referring to - I wonder if that person would talk to you FACE to FACE like that!

I like the face to face comments and they better grab something stable because I got a Thighmaster for Christmas and as Kenny Banya says on Seinfeld "I'm huge!"

"You know, George, the ocean called. They're running out of shrimp."
"Oh yeah, Riley? Well, the jerk store called. They're running out of you!"
"What's the difference? You're their all-time best seller."

I guess it depends on when you think the new Millenium is?

by the way if you have a millenium party in 2000, is the party one year late or actually one year "early?"
