So I have been watching a blind playing Frogger on Ebay for about a month and a half. The seller is about 20 minutes from me so I thought I would try to get it. It had a reserve and starting bid was $1. Being that the game played blind I only wanted to pay between $100-150 for it so I watched the first auction to see where it would end up,it ended at $121. Seller relists it 2 days later and I put it on my watch list again,this time I ask him what he would take to buy it outright. He replied with $250 and I said to myself,no way!! I then counter offered $150,of course he said no. Fast forward to him listing it 3 more times and in each listing it never goes over $125.This week I message him the day after it ended and told him my offer for $150 still stands if he wanted to reconsider,he says yes.I get his phone number and we set up a pick up for 12 noon yesterday,he said that would work. Now,I had a feeling that something would go wrong with this for someone reason but I continued my trek to the location anyway. My GPS is going good and I am less than a mile from the address so I call the guy to let him know I was close just like he asked me to do. Of course the phone goes to voicemail,I leave a message.I wait 5 minutes,no call back.I call back 3 more times no answer. I get to the so called destination and there's nothing there but trees and a railroad track. I pull over and replot the adress into the GPS and it gives me the same thing so the address is correct or so I thought. I ride around trying to find a house with the correct numbers on it and don't see it,by now I am Fu***** FURIOUS!!! so badly to the point where I began to sweat. I pull over and wait a few minutes for him to call back and heard nothing. I get back on the highway to head home and about 2 miles from my house this asshole finally decides to call back. "My phone went dead last night and I didn't realize it" he says. Whatever......I say to him,I told you what time I would be there and you wasted my time and gas,if you want to sell the game I am not coming back to get it you can bring it to me.He says,sorry dude I can bring it to you tommorow(Today being sunday) I'll be there around noon.Send me your address so I have it. Now,the auction had a full address on it in the location area that it is on all sales so like anyone else I assumed that that was where I was supposed to go,NOPE!! This guy tells me "Oh!! thats not where the game is,it's at my shop" WTF!!!??? So fast forward to today when he is supposed to show up. I get up at 8 am as usual and wait for noon to come.Being that I had already dealt with this guys bullshit yesterday I call him at 10:30 to see if he's still coming ,and you guessed it!! NO ANSWER!!! I leave a voicemail... Time goes by and it is now almost 8pm,I never heard from him. I have been boiling mad for the past 7.5 hrs. I'm I taking this way to seriously?? It's just that I have never been screwed so badly before in my life and I just wanna do something to this guy but don't know what. I wanna maybe setup another Ebay account,make sure I'm the highest bidder in the end and never pay for the shit. I wanna do it numerous times too. I also thought of messaging him to tell him how big of a POS he is for doing what he did ,but he now has my address and I don't want him coming to my house to have my kids see me cuss or beat the shit out of him..
End rant,sorry it was so long
