Hi all,
As I mentioned the other day, I have a new auction running. Part of why I took
so long to get it started is that I was still hoping to resolve the five buyers
who chose not to honor their bids. I waited so long that eBay won't allow me
to place feedback and/or seek to get my money back from the sale. Oh well.
But beware!
The following buyers either refused to return contact, refused to pay, or paid
in canadian funds and refused to make it right.
fmcgrann@megalink.net
frank.roy / frank.roy@expanets.com
beeper18 / lynn.v@ns.sympatico.ca
jewelj71 / jewelj71@aol.com
seahawk17 / lazarus@kiva.net
I want to acknowledge two things here. I am not the best buyer in the world.
I like to think I'm a pretty responsible seller, but I have bought stuff and
forgot to pay for it. It happens. But it's not good. The other thing is that
there is some miniscule chance that I have wrongly accused one of these people.
If it ever comes to my attention that this is true I will post an apology about
it in response to this note.
