Just received this sweet note from a buyer over the weekend:
"Item XXXXXXXXX098 - [BUYERID] paid for item on 12/3. According to the information on the item page, each item is shipped via first class mail with a tracking # provided. You claim that you mailed my item to me on 12/4 but you have not provided me w/a tracking #. There is NO WAY that it would take this long for the item to reach me. I will have to contact my credit card company and/or eBay to withold payment until I receive this item. Please check on this matter first before you again insist that the item is on its way and that I should simply keep waiting. Thank you."
The funny thing is, I wasn't even the seller of this item! The buyer apparently did a search of closed listings for the title of the item he bought, came across mine and just ASSUMED that I was the one who sold it to him (guess he never thought to look in his "My eBay" page and see what he had purchased. Or check his PayPal account. Or check his email for the payment confirmation. Geeze!)
Without even verifying that he had the correct buyer, he then proceeded to send me a snarky message. Thanks, buddy!
I simply replied back "I was not the seller of this item. Please do not send me any more threatening emails."
Goes to show the mindset of some buyers these days!
