I recently sold a used phone on ebay and i didnt expect the ending bid to be anymore than $200, since the phone has some noticeable scratch marks - but everything else in perfect working condition.
So i come home and i see that the auction ended at $223.00 and i'm really happy! But then i get a email from the buyer accusing me of shill bidding, because apparently the bidder before this guy had 0 feedback. I really didnt know what to say to that so i just told him that he didnt have to buy the phone if he believed that, and we can both mutually agree to withdrawal the auction. I get another email from him 2 hours later telling me...oh sorry i found out that the guy before me was a legitimate buyer for the phone...but can you sell me the phone for $215?!? I'm like wat?!!??!!? So i email him back and tell him that he won the auction fair and square at $223.00 and i wont accept $215. And he never emailed me back...so i relisted the phone again.
Now i dont want him to give me negative feedback! I have a 264 rating at 100%. A few months ago i sold a pair of jeans the buyer never paid and left a nasty neg feedback. I thought that if someone does not pay and i file nonpaying on them the feedback they leave does not show up...but apparently it's caused a dent in my rating. So now i dont want another one from this guy...because this is dumb. Is there anything i can do?!
