I had 2 bags up for auction on ebay, and 3 days before the end of the auction, I closed both listings. I was trying to make revisions for shipping and ebay kept blocking me. In addition, I verified rates with Fedex and DHL for shipping from Manila to the US and it seems now there are a host of new INSANE rules (such as original receipt must be included when shipping designer handbag - customs dues will be based on price of original receipt, even though bag is used and buyer pays a lower price...etc.etc).
Anyway, almost 24 hours AFTER I had already closed my auction I received an email from a "bidder" saying she had made an offer and I had counter-offered (I don't remember doing any such thing). She asked me if I closed my auction because I had been bothered by too many questions from those "Louis Vuitton fanatics" (I am guessing she meant TPF folks).
I tried replying - only because I felt she was insinuating that my bag was not authentic Honestly, I don't care how many people email me for more pictures - I will gladly provide!!!
Anyway, I couldn't send my reply through ebay because according to the site I have "no relationship with the ebay member" and we were not "involved in any transaction".
If I couldn't get in touch with her, how could she get in touch with me? I just found this a bit strange and unnerving. Has this happened to anyone else?
