ebay member to BLOCK "TUMUSS" he is a CU member

I sold this item on ebay about three weeks ago.

I'm sure you've all heard of the OFR, the land of CU misfits. Well I was banned a few weeks ago, no big deal. Well a few days go by and I noticed a mod, the same mod who cried for my banning, TUMUSS, purchaced a problem coin from me on ebay... red flags go up I'm I high alert. Surely he can't be this big of jerk to mess with a persons ebay feedback. Wrong.

As soon as I recieved payment I left positive feedback and sent the coin on it's way. If you havn't seen my coins description, read it, I clearly state the coin is a problem coin.

Big surprise, he asked to return the coin in his exact words: "I will be returning this coin to you for a refund. Your photo provided did not show how bad the white spots were." No questions asked I politely ask him to return the coin for a 100% refund, which I did. At this point I'm hoping for a no feedback.

Wrong again, he left me with a neutral and the comment "You're special alright."

My sig at the OFR had the statement "I am special" in quotes.

From time to time we all disagree on internet forums. But actually mess with a persons ebay feedback for no reason is a bit sad imho.

    To all the members at the OFR, "misfits" was meant to be a compliment.

    If you handled the situation as you said, i feel the feedback that was left may have been a bit excessive? Just block and move on!

    So if you got banned from OFR that means there are only five posters left?

    Frankcas - You must have really upset TUMUSS for him to follow you and taunt you on three websites! It'd be nice to hear TUMUSS' side. However, with his post here, it seems unlikely. image

    Do you think the image really did represent the coin? I see a decent coin and no sign of spots. Image is as important as the words in a listing in my opinion,
    I see no valid reason to block anyone. image

    I always thought/assumed (I'm not a member) it was next to impossible to be stricken from OFR rolls? Must have been a dosey of an infraction.

    Sounds like you might have been set up, I do not know the TUMUSS person, maybe it's better that I don't.

    Hey "frankcas"...weren't you banned from this board too? In fact is this not a alt that you are posting under now image


    Facts are these: This guy has taunted me for a long time. I noticed he had a steely for sale on ebay that did not look as bad as he described - so I bought it. Turns out his pic was not even close to showing the cloudy white marks on the coin. He has a return policy - so I used it. One good thing that came from this is I now know who this guy is....before it was just some no-name punk messin with me on the boards.


    I sure as hell was not going to leave him a positive...Neg would not be right either...So neutral it was. Then, as I was leaving the feedback I recalled what he liked to say when he screwed with people....So..."You're special alright" it was.

    Very uncool to follow some one to eBay and mess the rep.

    Petty.

    Bad week for long time posters around here.

    The coin is a problem coin, as it has spotting on both the obverse and reverse sides. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Thanks!

    I think he meant check the neutral feedback; which shows the winning bidders full ID.

    Edited to say: Looks like JM and I were typing at about the same time with the same thought.
