weerdsteev Pillar of the Community United States 1291 Posts	Posted 11/08/2010 4:36 pm Interesting. Whenever I send a coin in the mail to a winning bidder I include a sort of combination invoice\packing list and I always write a personal "thank you" on this piece of paper. If the guy's last name is "Brown" I write, "Thank you Mr. Brown!" and then I sign and date it. On this particular transaction, there was no last name or first name associated to the payment. There was only a two part business name, (like Smith and Wesson...but NOT Smith and Wesson) which I assumed would be a coin shop or an antique dealer or something like that. I just went and looked it up on line and it's a CPA firm! It has occurred to me that this might be retribution from some crazy ebayer that I went off on about a month ago, (and which I shared with you all...and which some of you wisely counseled me for my folly) but if so, why a neutral and not a negative...and why no hit to my DSRs? I'm thinking my offer to refund and let him keep the coin will tell the story. If he does NOT have an axe to grind with me he should take my offer, right? Report this Post to the Staff
Wei Fun Valued Member United States 244 Posts	Posted 11/08/2010 8:39 pm I know if I were given that offer, I'd jump at the chance. So what if I'm not too happy with the coin, at a grand total of free, you can't beat the price. Report this Post to the Staff
weerdsteev Pillar of the Community United States 1291 Posts	Posted 11/09/2010 1:16 pm I was concerned that this guy would take a swipe at my DSRs. If he did, I wouldn't even know about until ebay updates them on 11/20. So...using their handy-dandy REPORTS system, I fiddled around until I found 10 buyers who had given me perfect 5s for all 4 categories and then I added this guy into that mix. Here are the results: He gave me 3s for Description and Communication but 5s on the other two categories. There was NO communication and none was called for, so I don't know how that rated a 3. I guess that in the final analysis he's just a goof ball and not someone bent on ruining me... Report this Post to the Staff
