    Angel, I don't think there is anything you can do as the buyer is unlikely to see that it's his ISP filtering out your emails so you can't get them through.

    I used to have serious problems with AOL users and it was very frustrating knowing there was no way I could get mail to them.

    The only chance you've really got of calming him down is to maybe phone him and work some charm on him? Just a thought <smile>

    Hi angelcake

    The way to get the e-mail through is to remove any reference of EBay. If EBay is mentioned at all it will probably bounce.

    My advice is send a direct mail to him explaining what has happened and try and calm him down or alternatively pull his contact details and give him a ring. A wee bit of grovelling and he will be all sweetness and light again.

    Agree with Hintza. Contact, explain, apologise and deliver.

    I have "sincerely" apologised through "contact member" and have offered if he gave me an alternative email address I send him the copies of the emails with dates on etc!

    I tried pulling details but dead mobile number!icon9.gif

    Hi Loates

    Top right of your ebay page.
    Adavanced search
    > left hand side
    Find contact information.
    You will then get a email off ebay ( as will the other party involved ) giving you / them the contact detials.
    You will only get the detials if you have or are in dealings with the person ( ie bought something recently or in the process ).

    Jaffa
