On the 11th February two auctions I had up ended, both sold to the same buyer so I sent a combined invoice.

Unfortunately I wasn't going to be able to post the next day as I had stated in the listings, so reduced the price of first class to compensate. The buyer then chose the option for 'pick up only'.

I looked at her location, realised she was in north Wales, and sent her a message saying presuming you didn't want to do this, I will refund you and then re-send you an invoice etc, I sent this message the day after the auction ended.

Then about midnight last night, I get a message saying 'when are u goin to dispatch ----- and -----.'

Is she actually taking the piss?

And it gets better ...

Got her phone number through eBay, phoned her up, no answer, left message. Half an hour later get another message 'could you post items please', honestly, it seems like she ignores any messages I send and at this rate I could be asking eBay to remove negative feedback ...

Agree with Wullie, the vast majority of Ebay transactions are quick and easy but when it goes wrong, it goes wrong on such a seismic level you don't know whether to laugh or shed a tear for the human race...
