I really hate doing this. Ebay is such a horrible place to sell and this is partly due to unserious buyers who bid and then totally disappear. I listed the Aliens Miniature Photo Cutout and the auction ended a week ago. The highest bidder replied once after several attempts of contacting him thru Ebay. He apologyzed for the delay and promised to pay on July 16 which obviously didn't happen. Ebay opened an unpaid item dispute which closed yesterday. The buyer still isn't reachable and don't replies to emails. This behavior makes me furious. It is hard enough to sell a rare piece to pay bills and other necessities. It's even harder going thru this and stressing people to come to terms. I checked his identity and found his facebook account. He has many friends active in the community and likely he's on this forum as well. For respect and privacy I will not post his real name but everybody should at least know his Ebay account names. He has 2. One is leebanq and the second is ttg1966ugr which he seems to use less, according to the feedback history.
I really don't understand why people bid on items when they cannot afford it or don't have a real interest buying it. If you don't have the money then don't bid and collect something else. My thoughts were that prop collecting was a sort of elite only for mature people but it embarrasses me how naive I was. I am still open for any reasonable explanation from the buyer and perhaps we can close this deal and forget everything.
