Yet another eBay seller to avoid (poodunky)

I bought a card from this idiot, paid immediately via Pay Pal, and 1 week later, nothing. So I e-mailed him politely asking if the card had been shipped. No response. So after 10 days I contacted Pay Pal. I guess that lit a fire because he refunded my money right away, but did so without asking. And I still wanted the card. So I negged him, and he of course retaliates and e-mails me to call me, get this, un-American. I even offered to buy the card after he re-listed it and mutually remove our feedbacks, but he said no. Anyway, these stories are a dime a dozen. But this one ticked me off.

    What a jackass.

    I think that often times a user id can suggest things about a seller. Guys like "poodunky," should be avoided no matter how bad you want the card. He has 30 negs by different users. That's a lot.

    Why do you think he renegged? Was that a real good price?

    I especially like his retaliatory neg:

    No idea why he renegged. I do think that was a decent price for the card, but it's been re-listed for over a day now with a $5 opening bid and no bids yet, so who knows? I thought he may have have sold it to someone else who contacted him after the fact because I bought it quickly with BIN, but after it got re-listed I was just like "huh?"

    Fact is that MANY eBay sellers do not want to
    ever hear from buyers via emails about "shipping
    status." Many sellers are crazy as loons and very
    unpredictable; just like many buyers.

    I find that the only times I usually have trouble
    with either group is when I try "to communicate
    with them" about ANYTHING.

    Thanks for the advice. I was just about to bid on a card from this guy that I haven't seen come up before, but I'll save myself the hassle.

    That is the God's honest truth! I'll usually wait 3 or 4 weeks after payment is rec'd before I politely and very carefully ask the seller if maybe perhaps he might possibly be so kind as to let me know when the item was shipped since I haven't rec'd it yet - and I still get nasty smug replies like "well you know how the mail can be bla bla bla". Just give me the frikking ship date - I paid for your damned card on time, the least you can do is let me know there is some possibility that I may receive the item I paid for somewhat prior to hell freezing over without having to take your crap as well....



    ....oops, did I say that out loud?

    I haven't taken my moron 101 class yet, so it's hard to say with any accuracy what that might mean. Next time I go to the zoo I'll see if one of the monkies can decifer it image

    bad = nasty
    ninny = a person who listens to Nine Inch Nails
    batty = a person with the insatiable urge to collect GU Louisville Sluggers
    boy = young man
