stupid ebay take 1 billion...

I sold a group of two steve mcnair RC's a few weeks ago... for $.99
yesterday I get a negative (my first in 300 or 400 positive feedback)... of course it is from this idiot $.99 auction buyer. It's my own fault for listing an item at .99. He says 'CROOK NEVER REC'D CARDS)
I message him saying 'you really need to communicate with the seller and ask for a refund if you don't get the product, I'd gladly give you a refund, how am I supposed to know the cards never arrived?"
Here is what he replied with:
this is the way i see i bro, no need for the attitude. i sent you the bread .. you send me the butta . its been over a month and if i was in your situation,i would be the one at fault. it isnt hard to put em ina envelope and ship em. but . dont matter bout the price i one it for homeboy,the point is i didnt get the product. so therefor i gota do what i gota do. keep the 5.
thanks for the offer
Am I wrong here? How are people this stupid alive? I do realize it is my fault for selling something for $.99, but still. Jeez.

You can't fix stupid!!
If you'd please post or PM the username, I'd like to block him too. I often sell items just to get 'em outta the house, and I don't want that freak negging me because he didn't receive his butter and isn't willing to take a refund of his bread.

or tries to make it better than I am more than happy to leave
him a postive as he came through in being a great seller.. "
/////////////////////////////////
EXACTLY. That is part of what makes a great seller; fixing things.
Ahman's story is a prime example of why so many honest sellers
now refuse to leave FB upon payment.
I hope that guy's ID gets spread around so we can all BBL him.
But, there are millions more just like him.
Please post his ID so we can add him to our block list. NO, it's not your fault. What a jerk... sorry about the neg! I know I will hate it when I get my first one.
Here is the a-hole
Recommend you do this...
Refund the %$#$% and do a Mutual Feedback Withdrawal
Good Luck
"USPS lost 99-cent card. No contact for EZ refund. Just leaves NEG. Block Bidder."
I would not be in a hurry to remove the NEG. It will not hurt your biz. It will
make him look like the BAD buyer that he is.

I like selling them, too. They bring lots of traffic to stores.
Now, even if I sell something for a few cents, I fatten up
a manilla or a bubble and slap DC on it. That runs the cost
of advertising up, but it's the only way to avoid the scamsters.
Already done above.
John, can't believe he did it. Hell, he is a seller too with 100% FB and no MW. He needs a neg. Good Luck
ROFLMAO! Way 2 GO John... Let us know if he emails u back about it. lol
It's pretty sad that he couldn't just email you and say hey never got card. What a loser!!!
the perp simply does not fully understand how
EBAY is supposed to work.
He even solicits cash in his listings.
Like Xanadu says, "Some folks need a little help."
He still deserves the Ahman NEG, though.
It looks like he might have some retal NEGS coming, too.
"ol your a joke homeboy. leavin me a negative feedback after i done gave you one. how you gona flip the story and sell wolf tickets like that . you didnt send my product and you know it.its cool though i aint trippin .peeps like you get your own way. but what goes around comes around so ill let you go now. ill see you later.. gone"
I figure this must be someone messing with me, or are there really people this stupid in the world?

I am afraid that there are people really that stupid. I deal with them everyday.

to EBAY for harassment. They will take no action but,
the complaint will go in his file.
You might contact the other sellers that he has NEGd
and see what their story on him is.
I have "1" neg from a non-payer, who retailated.I have almost 800 feedback and it takes a lot of work to keep even the crazys happy. When I have bidders on the horizon, I normally check their feedback history if I have time. Almost every nasty or hostile buyer( or sellers even ) are so easily spotted now, that at times I go into damage control mode soon after the sale is over to headoff problems . I've saved numerous potential trainwrecks by doing a little homework.
I've heard that there are many stupid people born every day, unforunately most live. These people are out there. We can ignore reality, but reality will never ignore us.

Gentlemen, it's 2007 now, time to start acquainting yourselves with New Ebay. Consider it a revolution and I just started it here. The following are perfectly acceptable reasons to neg someone:
1.) The item never arrives. DO NOT contact the seller, they won't help you.
2.) You do not receive an invoice within 24 hours of auction end.
3.) The seller does not accept PayPal.
4.) The seller fails to follow up the purchase with a friendly and humble message requesting any further services they may provide at no cost to the buyer.
5.) The seller uses a US postage stamp with an inflammatory, offensive or nonjoyful image on it (ie. teddy bears, American flag, sporting personalities).
6.) The sller either knowingly or unknowingly schedules the auction to end at a date/time that is inconveniet to the buyer (ie. weekends, nights, early mornings, weekdays)
7.) The seller accepts PayPal
8.) The item description is unsatisfactory
9.) If purchased during any holiday season the item doesn't arrive gift wrapped in appropriate thematic wrapping
10.) The seller has positive feedback of 1000+ (these seller's are usually arrogant and pompous and should be "brought back down to earth")
11.) The buyer becomes ill or contracts a common cold shortly (3-4 months) after handling the seller's item/packaging
Above infractions should be handled with an immediate neg feedback as well as claims to the USPS of mail fraud and reporting the seller to their respective local FBI office with charges of statuatory rape and operating a kiddie porn ring. If the seller lives within 1500 miles of the buyer, the buyer should execute "street justice." If the seller lives outside of the 1500 miles radius the buyer should hire someone to execute "street justice" and the buyer should then sue the seller for the cost of hiring said street thug as well as compensatory punitive damages ... and lawyer fees.
Wave of the Future.

I am thinking that future is not one that makes me want
to be on EBAY forever.
In many collectible categories, I am pretty certain that I
can do as well or better on a free-standing website.
The money I pay EBAY can go to google ads and other
online clickables.
Way over 50% of my collectible biz is coming from simple
flyers that I enclose with orders and mail to my lists.
The stress of having to worry about psychos each time
somebody buys something through EBAY, is losing its
charm, for me.
Very disturbing.
Not all that surprising, though.
