HI ALL!! fool me once shame on you fool me twice shame on me

    "    Saw you stretched out in a room ten-o-nine, a smile on your face and a tear in your eye, your Berber jewelry is jangling down the street, smile on your face for every high school girl that you meet, may the good lord flash a light on you, make every song you're singing your favorite tune    "    Well it's been a busy week, several errands, including a BIG trip to the grocery store. Ran mom on a couple of errands as well, and I even made a solo trip and took care of some stuff. Trying to get something set up with the daughters for this weekend. Not sure yet. Did have a 'little' issue on eBay. Has a guy buy a Finest set from me. I packaged it up and sent it to him. Three days AFTER he got the package he writes to tell me that some of the cards are damaged. The shipping box is fine, there are cards in it that are damaged. Well right off I smell a scam!! Finest cards are some of the thickest cards made, and I packaged them tight so they would NOT move around in shipping, AND I sent them in a box DESIGNED for baseball cards. He says we can"make a deal, before he reports it to eBay". Wants a $100 refunded. Tried to negotiate that, NO WAY!! $100, or he's reporting it. Well her's the issue. The cards were NOT damaged, and if I say, no let's got to resolution center, he will BEND the cards HIMSELF to prove his point. Then I lose the resolution and he send me back bent cards (cause HE bent them), and I have to refund FULL amount. Or I give in and refund the $100, and deal done. He gets his 'discount' and I don't have to deal with damaged cards. He said there were about a 100 cards damaged. I looked up how much it would cost to replace them, about $200. So I am going to call eBay and report what happened, so they can at least put something on his account in the event he is doing this to ALL the big deals he buys. When he first made the offer to buy the cards it was VERY close to my asking price, so there was no dickering on the sale. NOW I know why -CAUSE HE WAS GOING TO BLACKMAIL ME AFTER THE SALE to get his price-!! So I have banned him from bidding on ANY of my items. That way I don't get burned again by him. He even left positive feedback. What a PIECE OF SHIT!!!! I'll make sure eBay is aware of this scam, and move on. This is what you run into at times in the baseball card world. Funny part he has been on eBay since 1999 too, so there is nothing to give you any kind of pause before the sale. So I need to make sure others are aware of this dirt bag. CHOW MOI!!
