    Sold an expensive CD with some business manuals on for 30 quid.

    Got an email from a losing bidder asking if I would run him off a copy and sell him it for a tenner. My better judgement told me to leave well alone, but thought I'd make a quick buck, and stupidly I agreed to do it (naughty I know, copyright etc.).

    When I asked him for 70p postage on top of the tenner, he hit the roof and accused me of being a pirate, a criminal, and ripoff merchant, and told me where to stick my bootleg CD!

    Serves me right really! But a bit rich with the piracy stuff, considering he was chasing me to do him a bootleg copy in the first place!
