BiggFredd, thanks for the info on the Silvertowne site. I looked at it and the maples seem to be selling for about the same and that shipping cost seems to be a factor. Is there an auction site there that I'm missing? As far as my ebay auction... I'm suppose to respond to his cancellation so that he can get his fees back. I guess I'll use that opportunity to express how I feel and direct the folks at ebay to look at our interration wihtin the ebay messages. Thanks for everyone's advice.

Absolutely send a message to ebay. Most sellers are not dumb enough to actually state the reason for the "non sale". Because this seller clearly stated that they wanted more money, AFTER the auction ended, he should not be allowed to sell on ebay. I would NOT respond to his cancellation until I sent all of the info to ebay and received a response. I believe Scubu has some good links for reporting things. Let me see if I can find them.

Do not agree to the cancellation. Make sure you are logged in and go here, then click "The seller doesn't want to sell." and follow the instructions. Do not agree to the cancellation. Let him pay the fees or he will continue to get away with this.

One more question before I go to that link. Based on how I feel about this seller now, I don't want to do business with him. By clicking on that link, are they going to think that I want to complete this transaction? Thanks.

My guess is yes, but you were willing to pay that amount anyway, and if the seller is correct, you will come out ahead. That and the fact that it will piss the seller off is reason enough to complete the purchase IMO.

I agree, let him pay the fees. Hit them where it hurts. Guy should be thrown off ebay actually.

I agree he should be stuck with the fees. However, based on his character I'd be concerned about what he would send me at this point. Plus, at this point I don't want to do business with him. Also, I'm a little concerned over a transaction with him earlier in the day. When I ran the tracking number he game me for that package it showed no activity. When I contacted him today he gave me another tracking number. When I tracked that number it showed something that was mailed from him yesterday and "out for delivery" to his town today (probably to himself). I'm waiting to hear what he has to say about that. I'm afraid he's holding this previous transaction as some kind of leverage. But then again, maybe I'm thinking too much.

As long as you paid via Paypal, I wouldn't worry too much about it. Plus, all of the email traffic between the two of you sounds like it is on your side. If you don't receive anything, you get your money back. If item is not correct or messed up due to the seller, you get your money back.

Yes. You should be protected under the buyer protection.

Thanks for the advice folks. I'll just let ebay sort it out and at the least let him have to pay the fees for cancelling.

Is the seller qualitypreciousmetals1? If so, he is a Top Rated Seller and will probably go through with the sale rather than risk the policy violation or anything that will take away that 20% discount on final fees. As everyone has stated, you will be well protected since you paid through Paypal. It would be quite foolish not to complete this sale for a difference of $30.

well at least he does not cost $200.00 for Standard Shipping...like this guy.
His coins have about $100 melt value, so you could get them for free and still lose half your $$$

Message ebay. He broke his word and that's wrong.
