    Respond to any disputes, then stop communicating with this loser.

    By the way the CAPS looks like shouting :)
    My TV is broken! :cry:

    The moral of the tale is “Don’t deal with mad Jocks”.

    In your shoes I would stop communicating with him and leave it to ebay.

    have you reported him for being abusive (and blackmailing) and forwarded his messages to ebay?
    I would have done this long ago and ceased all communication with him.
    It's BOUGHT (to Buy), not BROUGHT (to bring) AND you cannot be frauded, only DEfrauded.

    Please do not buy animals from a pet store. Visit your local sanctuary or centre and give a good home to an unloved or abandoned animal.

    if we don't hear from you by this time tomorrow we will have no choice but to issue non paying bidder alerts for both items.

    looking forward to hearing from you.


    no response so non paying bidder disputes opened for both items

    Think you were too hasty there and !!!!ed your buyer off.


    Replying in capitals doesn’t help either.

    When dealing with buyers a bit of patience is often required.

    I have to agree with sooler ...a tad too hasty and now he is raging!!

    You need to take into account these sort of things and especially for a collection item I would expect weekends to be more suitable for most folk. In this instance I would not have done anything until the following sunday night or Monday.

    thanks,
    we have stopped communicating with him and reported him to ebay so hopefully they will take the right actions. all these emails happened last night so we were only communicating to try and sort it out.

    we were patient, we arranged pickup to suit him 4 times. he first wanted to come at the weekend. then he changed his mind and changed it to tues or wed. no emails, no phone calls so we sat in waiting for 2 nights expecting him to turn up. no apology. we waited 10 days for payment & collection.

    to be honest we're glad we don't have to deal with him after his behaviour.

    sorry i don't agree with being too hasty we waited 10 days for collection & payment. he made arrangements to collect 4 times and never turned up/ emailed/ or phoned. can you blame us for getting annoyed? he said weekends weren't suitable for him to pickup.
