I had 5 out of 6 Defender boards I listed on EBay bought by ChuckFrom Hell
eek: yes, I called him out without all the usual forum hystronics). The auction is quite specific about payment:
The auction ended 2/17. The 72 hours was up yesterday (2/20) at 5pm. Not a word out of him. I sent a gentle reminder yesterday and a stronger reminder just now with a second invoice. When I invoiced him the first time I reduced all the shipping charges in to one USPS flat fee shipping box ($11 vs $50 something individually).
If anybody knows who this guy is and especially if he is a KLOVer, let him know that the boards are either going back into the auction pool or I will second chance offer them soon and he will be SOL. He needs to contact me.
Sorry for the rant, but I am p*ssed. I use the proceeds from the auctions to fund the purchases I need to finish restores and I've had to let a couple of things go because the money wasn't in my PayPal account. Like a lot of you, I fund my hobby by buying busted or untested (usually synonomous) items and fixing/testing them and reselling them. There is not a lot of margin but I don't have a lot of overhead either, just a $70 a month storage unit. So when I get stiffed, I get p*ssed. All it would take is a quick email or just pay the d*mn invoice.
If he does either, I will post the results in this thread. Otherwise, Seller Beware!

Payment:
* Payment is to made by PayPal within 72 hours of the close of the auction, unless alternate arrangements are made.
* Longer than 72 hours and I will re-list the item and mark you as a no-pay.
* Local pickup is possible. If paying cash at pickup, I will waive the shipping charges.
