No, I think he was 100% right to be sarcastic ... stupidity like you suggest is the big reason why eBay is sucking more and more. Fees and Paypal are only signposts on this journey-- stupid behaviour by buyers and sellers is is what is really killing eBay (for coin-op at least).
I have had a couple of instances where people pulled the same kind of --cream-filled twinkie-- crap when their auction weren't fetching what they wanted. And there have been folks who have had to eat my $1.23 bid and were gracious about it. Those folks get my repeat business and more generous bids in the future (and my business outside of eBay).

Sure, and I totally agree with what you're saying. It sounds like the guy screwed up, it's if he'll take it on the chin or not. Not to say I would I but, I'd have a hard time trying to smile when they came to collect it :laugh2:

I think there's something you're not getting....

To each his own...
We have a local shop in my area that has stuff like this so if you guys don't mind the shipping, I am sure I can get you stuff similar to this.

I wish there was somewhere like this in the UK. The vendors are really tight over here and usually only destroyed cabs they want to knock out for reasonable prices.
