Ebay help

72skywalker

I purchased a card on ebay and paid $20.00 for it. I really only wanted to pay $10.00 so I emailed the seller and told him to please change his invoice to $10.00 because that is all I really wanted to pay and that i only bid $20 to ensure that I won the item instead of someone else. He responds "no" and that I need to pay the agreed to $20.00. What is his problem? I am going to end up blocking him after this transaction anyways because he is from Ohio and you really can't trust people from Ohio but what recourse do I have? I have alerted his local authorities about his shady practice and they told me to stop calling them and work it out through ebay. He must have connections in that police department. Stupid corrupt cops. Also, he wants $3.00 for shipping. I offered to meet him at the local Burger King with my gun toting friend for protection to save on the shipping. He is licensed to carry firearms and he is licensed to fish in upstate New York as well so he is legit. I told the seller that I need him to bring me to the Burger King because the car I won on Craiglist through Ebay Motors has not arrived yet because I still need to pay for it and that i will pay for it as soon as my winnings from the Australian lottery comes in. The seller refused again. What shoud I do besides sending a year's subscription of "Cat Fancy" magazine to his house. Gotta love the bill me later section on the flyers. this guy is being a jerk and I am not going to stand for it.

Also, my dog keeps crapping in my neighbor's yard and they want me to clean it up. Do you think the Jury administrators will let me off the hook if I tell them that I can't serve because I have to spend the day cleaning up the poop. I have pictures of the poop as evidence so I think that should sway them. Also I did serve in the Cub scouts in elementry school so I feel I have given back to my country. Those old ladies aren't going to cross the street themselves.

Edited to add that he just emailed me to tell me to "Have a nice day". I did not appreciate him telling me what kind of day to have and that if he sent me back my $10 I will have that nice day. If he does not send me back the money I cannot guarantee what type of day I will have and that I will go out of my way to have a mediocre day just to spite him.

Actually I am offended by the reference to Ohioans not being trustworthy. I'll have you know I have lived in Ohio since Harry Truman was President and I woud never cheat or lie to anyone unless I would benefit greatly.

72skywalker,

FINE, YOU WIN! Enough already with bashing me on these message boards. You are killing my stellar reputataion. I will pick you up tonight
at 8 pm and drive you to said Burger King to complete the transaction. You can bring your friend, it doesn't phase me. The only condition is that you're gonna have to meet me half way at $15 or at least buy me a chocolate shake. Fair enough? PLMK and cease fire on my personal character. Thanks.

A brilliant realization of today's forum. All of this would be the stuff of soap opera in other hands, but 72skywalker's novelette sees the buyer so sympathetically that we share his regrets for a fading way of life. We might believe ideologically that the aristocracy exploits the working class (seller was a Marxist who believed just that), but the buyer himself is such a proud and good man, so aware of his mortality, so respectful of tradition and continuity, that as he compromises his family in order to save it, we share his remorse. That 72skywalker is able to convey all of that in a sports cards and memorabilia forum is miraculous and emotionally devastating, and it is what his post is all about.
Two thumbs way up!!

You must be talking about James Pond.

Ohioans can't be trusted??....ouch man.

that James Pond comment got me thinking about the St. Nick Chevy Silverado comercials that ran over the holidays. Anyone seen the one about the hunter? "oh yeah?...whatya hunt?" "deer...uh....fish". Great comercial, BUT....Go to Youtube, and look for the extended version....I thought the long version was hilarious...much better than the spot they ran on TV. If you get a second, check it out. THIS guy could possibly BE your James Pond. LOL
