I've won this auction on ebay and a day after the auction ended the seller sent me an email saying this :
"[FONT=Arial, Verdana]Hi,
Congratulations on your bargain; could you please let me know how and when you intend to pay. If you have changed your mind then I can make a second chance offer to the under-bidder. Thanks very much indeed. "
Then since she offered to sell it to the 2nd highest bidder, I thought that's great! So I told her please go ahead...
then she replied me:
"[/FONT][FONT=Arial, Verdana]Hi,
Thanks for letting me know but that's really not the way to do business; you should not make purchases without having the funds in place to start with.
I will start the non paying bidder procedure in 7 days time and will offer this to the under-bidder."
That I replied again, apologizing. I told her I intended to pay for it but since she said she would offer it to the 2nd highest bidder I thought she wouldnt mind if I change my mind.
Here is her reply:
"[/FONT][FONT=Arial, Verdana]Indeed I did make that offer but who is to say the under bidder will want the item?
If you pay now then I believe I can still cancel the offer to the under-bidder."
Then I told her, I would make the payment within 5 days of her auction listing but wouldnt be able to last night when she asked me.
She replied:
"[/FONT][FONT=Arial, Verdana]My auction terms and conditions only accept postal payments within 5 days so I assume in that case you will be paying by wire transfer or money order? Please advise which."
Then I said I will Paypal it with confirmed address.
Her reply:
"[/FONT][FONT=Arial, Verdana]Well to start with you won't have a confirmed address because you are in Australia so that's impossible to start with.
Secondly, PayPal payments are expected immediately.
So I suggest we leave it like this - if the under-bidder purchases the item and pays for it prior to you then its hers and the non paying bidder process will be commenced against you."
Then she emailed me again:
"[/FONT][FONT=Arial, Verdana]The underbidder has now purchased AND paid for the Broome wallet so I am afraid it is no longer available for you."
My final email to her:
"[/FONT][FONT=Arial, Verdana]Hi,
sorry to say this, but it seems that you have something against me from the start.
I am sorry if I have offended you somewhere along the conversation, but not once have I intended to do so.
I am glad that you have received the payment from the 2nd highest bidder.
Although like I have said to you I will make the payment. However you proceed on and now the wallet is sold. I have confirmed my Paypal account by upgrading it so not sure why you say since I live in Aussie that means I am not verified.
Can you please kindly let me know what have I done wrong so at least I can apologize properly?
Looking forward to hear from you.
Kind Regards"
Is it me?
Ive been reading all the email just so I know what I might have said offended her...I JUST DONT GET IT!!!
Now she's gonna proceed with the NPB, I dont want to get negative feedback
HELP! What can I do?
