    I have to say this sounds a bit worrying to me, why would some one want EVERYTHING of yours :confused: how many things is it for?

    Have you considered maybe emailing the person, saying something like you will give them a discount on postage as they are buying so much, and see if they actually respond?


    I hope it turns out they are a genuine bidder. I have had so many problems with fake bidders, cost me alot of money with listing fee's - esp as some of them weer for cars that cost £10 to list!

    OOOps, looks like you posted twice :D!

    I often buy a lot of items from one seller, particularly if they offer combined postage and items that I can use together (an example could be someone who sells knitting patterns but also sells knitting needles and wool.... I quite often will repeat a purchase from seller who has sent me something that is off good quality and at a price i like!

    Eeekk -- maybe its me Soo!! LOL!

    Well my guy is the perfect buyer, he pays instantly and is very enthusiastic in his feedback praise. I always discount his postage and last time he bought a batch of things I just emailed as usual to thank him, and sort of mentioned that I had unlisted items that he might be interested in, but he never took me up on that, just put in bids on all the new stuff I did list.

    He really is the perfect buyer.
