it seems like stuff on ebay gets crazier all the time...this last week I sold a few hockey pack lots that ended on sunday night both to two different users names both with 100% feedback ...after the auction ended I get an email from one of the buyers that he would like to get a reduced rate on shipping for the packs I said I will see what I could do...not 10 minutes later I get almost the same exact email except the buyer if under a different id for the other hockey lot of packs...I look at the shipping address and its to the same guy with two different ids (kinda odd but ok)..so I was going to try and combine shipping and knock a few bucks off...then I get another email from him stating that it would be better if I just put a few extra bucks in the package when shipping...now I know something is up not sure what but I try to send an email back to the guy and tell him I wont send any cash thru the mail he is no longer a registered user on both accounts..i am just wondering did it get hacked or what the real story is...btw the guy address was an apt in virgina..just wondering if anyone has ever ran into this... image

    Figured it was him. Check out how many bid retractions he has in past 6 months. I'll PM you, Terry.

    Same crap to me... Finds and reasons to try and get a partial refund or will ask for a lower shipping cost after the auction ends.
