I'm in the middle of an eBay transaction with a seller who seriously needs to be medicated. Thought this might make an interesting conversation.
OK, I'll start.
I bought a Coach lanyard with little hearts on it to give to my niece as a little Valentine's Day gift. Buy it now and paid immediately $25.00 + $2.00 shipping. Estimated arrival 2/6-2/7. Seller lives in my state. On 2/4 when I realized that the item wasn't marked shipped I emailed the seller asking for status and if it was shipped I asked her to provide me with the tracking info.
She responded on 2/5 that she had shipped it on 2/4 and I should 'relax it's on it's way'
I again emailed her asking again for tracking because I wanted to know when to expect it.
She replied that there is no tracking, she can't afford the added expense and again suggested I relax.
I KNOW that when you buy purchase thru eBay AND at the post office counter, tracking is FREE. I emailed her back telling her that there is no charge for First Class Mail tracking, told her that buyers appreciate the info and that getting tracking protects the sender in case of a non-receipt claim.
This where the bat-$**** crazy starts:
All in all there have been 8 emails from her ranting and raving. I stopped responding about 5 emails ago. Below is the copy/paste from her last message to me. Wow. Just WOW. Oh, and I should mention that she has over 1100 feedbacks .
"I'll recap. Nowhere in the listing did I mention letting you know when it would be shipped, or that I would provide tracking info. DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT????
Please, just go away. Far, far away."
Ok ladies, lets hear your tales of crazy!

This where the bat-$**** crazy starts:
- I have a lot of nerve telling her what to do.
- How dre I expect delivery confirmation when the auction page says nothing about it
- I need to learn to read.
- I don't know what her situation and FYI, she's got medical bills to pay.
- I need to leave her alone
