Leave this loser in the dust and let your auction run. If he really wants them that badly, he can bid like the rest of the people. You may get a lot more than you think if you are patient. That guy sounds like am impatient jerk who might not even come through and be a non paying bidder or something. And then what will you have done - ended your action for nothing?He won't make an offer! He just keeps saying "name your price and we'll see if it works out."
Oy!
That's weird. Has he ever bought from you before? Maybe he saved your info.
Just tell him to participate in the bidding, and that it's against ebay's rules to set up a private auction. But you could add a high BIN to the auction and see if someone bites.
BTW did you read the thread LVbabydoll has about her persistent shoe buyer? Hope that's not the same guy!!!
I would let the auction run. I am very wary of overly persistant buyers and even warier of anyone with private feedback.
