[OM] question re ebay

Hi all, I've subscribed again after being away for a month or so.
(sometimes my love/hate relationship with my computer tells me to get on my
bike more than.......)

I have this weird ebay thing going on and wonder what you think.  Bear in
mind I have very little ebay experience.

I see a lens I want, the seller says he won't accept bids unless the bidder
has more than 10 feedbacks.  As I only have 5 feedbacks I asked him how I
prove to him I am a good boy.  He replied that my asking was a good sign,
that some idiot was trying to sabotage him, that I could bid.
I didn't bid, didn't really feel like it, or perhaps I just wanted to wait
until the end.  No one else is bidding on his lens.  After some days I get
an email saying:  "You don't bid, why not.  Are you the asshole who is
bugging me?"
I've told him it's none of his business whether I bid or not and that I am
not the asshole who is bugging him.

So, have I missed out on something?  Or is he what he thinks I am?  Machiel
