Nutcases on Ebay!

I have come to realise that there are quite a few nutcases on Ebay. I hardly ever sell anything but I remember once selling some bnwt bras as they did not fit and I had forgotten to return them. The person who won said they were in my area and could they collect - ok! A man turned up who then proceeded to stay for 3 hours:eek: whilst he "explained" to me how he was a crossdresser and would i mind if he tried the bras on first! Feeling a tad uncomfortable as my babies were little then and he was a stranger, I said No but if he didnt want them then that was fine. He then started crying and ranting that no woman understood him. I was terrified and was so glad when my husband came home. Needless to say that really put me of selling anything coc. Anyone else had any loonys or am i just drawn to them lol

Oh my god, that sounds horrible! I don't mind collection for some items but I think I would have said no to a man wanting to collect a bra in person. It just screams 'odd' doesn't it!:www: :: MFi3 ::

I know that it is wrong but boy did that make me laugh. A script for a sitcom if ever there was one.
So did he actually pay for & take the bras?
Unfortunately I have not had any buyers like that.
Maybe I should start selling bras, as I really could do with some light entertainment.0 -
I also attract them but not on ebay fortunately.0

I offered a computer monitor on freecycle. The person I offered it too kept failing to collect it. A few weeks later I put it on ebay. The winning bidder failed to collect. After checking her details I realised it was the same person. I checked her feedback a few weeks later, she had bought another monitor from someone else and failed to collect that. Timewasting nutjob.0

I blame it on the weather.
Thank goodness I haven't had to sell to some of the imbeciles that have been on this board this weekend.0 -
You should have punched his lights out, the big soft jessie. Then again, he might have liked it.0
