Now the seller has written back.  Here's a copy of his post:

Dear Mike,
Thanks so much for your help on my auctions. I will make sure to watch
your auctions also on Ebay to see if I can help you out.

Would it be appropriate to post a feedback message on this seller?  I would
just post the original message Mike sent out to the bidders and this guy's
reply(s).

The problem I have with the reply that was posted here is that it could be
read as a polite note, or it could be read as a subtle threat.  So, perhaps
an additional follow-up message from the seller should be included to make
sure that the feedback is negative.

I haven't been over to e-bay recently, and while I know that feedback on
sellers and buyers is there, I haven't a clue what the mechanism is for
filing a feedback.  Can someone who has not completed a transaction file
the report?

I guess discussions of auctions can happen here, right? Well, check out this url: (URL) 1807 for $5.50 PLUS shipping! I e-mailed all of the bidders (and the seller) involved a very polite message and let them know that should they want any more (...) (26 years ago, 11-Oct-98, to lugnet.market.auction)
