For long time readers, you'll remember that I had a buyer of my 18/3.5 back
out on the deal.  He overbid and did it without his wife's 'permission' and
she made him renege on the deal.

I asked the group what to do about leaving feedback and then did the right
thing. I left him negative feedback.  Here's what I posted to him:

Buyer's wife forced him to back out of auction - bid high then didn't pay

He replied to that with:

Well as it says my wife cost me this auction, it wont happen again as I am
free

I guess the auction cost him his marriage <g>.

He waited months and then finally left me feedback -- negative feedback.
Here's what he posted to me:

I tryed to resolve the issue with the 16mm lense, very hungry for the money.


I guess if he thinks saying that he wouldn't pay is trying to resolve it,
then he tried.

I can't tell you how angry I am about this. I value my e*bay rating, and to
be punished for telling the truth burns me up.

My caution to e*bayers.  Maybe you don't want to leave that negative
feedback.


I am not a happy camper.

Tom
